While AR-15–style rifles are banned in New York City, the FightLite SCR has been explicitly allowed, even though it accepts standard AR-15 upper receivers.

With the upper receiver fixed in place you can then co-witness through the barrel and the sights on the top of the rifle, while doing this you can visually align the ...
At closer ranges (typically inside 15–20 meters), the shooter must compensate by aiming high to place shots where desired. The standard AR-15 rifle has a 500 mm (19.69-inch) sight radius. [15] The AR-15 uses an L-type flip, aperture rear sight and it is adjustable with two settings, 0 to 300 meters and 300 to 400 meters. [16]
An image of the DEFCAD Charon AR-15 family. The DEFCAD Charon is an open source [ 1 ] 3D-printable AR-15 lower receiver project that was partially inspired by the Fabrique Nationale P90 . It began as a design exercise by a DEFCAD user to explore FDM additive manufacturing technology as a means of integrating the P90's ergonomics into a stock ...
The AR Lower V5 is a 3D printed lower receiver for the AR-15 rifle. [1] It was created in March 2013 Defense Distributed printed using the Stratasys Dimension SST 3-D printer [1] [2] using the fused deposition modeling (FDM) method. [2] The receiver was able to handle enough stress to fire more than 600 rounds. [1]

Civilian AR-15 target sights have an aperture between 1 and 1.15 mm (0.039 and 0.045 in). The aperture on AR-15 military sights have a day aperture of approximately 1.78 mm (0.070 in), and the M16A2 also a night setting with a larger 5.08 mm (0.200 in), and as such the military sight is not strictly a diopter sight in either setting.
