MBUS front and rear set here, but buyer beware of independent sellers and genuine parts.
MBUS Pro front and rear set here. This is sold and shipped by Amazon at time of OP.
I don’t mean to make light of the costs, truly. I know $819 is a ton of money.

Also, that Ruger or things like it will go on sale at a local gun store.
> Currently have some on my ar, they're good, but are the $100 a pair good?
Magpul offers models in the 60-70 range, which seem like pretty middle of the road. Price-wise. At least, thats what I observed shopping for flip sights.
I'm kinda deadlocked on the Troy and YHM . . . leaning towards the YHM but I don't either is a bad choice.
Top is my new Krytac Trident MK2 CRB in Flat Dark Earth with UTG 1-4.5x28 CQB Scope, Magpul MBUS flip up sights, and PTS Fortis Shift grip.
Below that is my brothers G&G CM16 SRXL using the Krytac iron sights and some flash hider. Now used as a backup to his RK74 CQB or used as a loaner.
Mags are PTS EPMs and KWA K120s. Also shown is the replica EOtech that I throw on whatever.
Edit: Bonus pics!. Krytac with Eotech replica and a random green suppressor I found in a drawer and the amplifier thingy from the SRXL.
Edit: I think I like this set up best.

Magpul BUIS for $80.00
Also, factor in shipping and the FFL transfer fee.
I actually don't think I am going to go with any of these. More than likely I will go with the Gen 2 Magpul BUIS (Back Up Iron Sights). My gun nut buddy rocks them on more than one of his ARs and swears by them, and I figure I'm going to be keeping them around for a good long while so might as well drop some cash for a proven product.
Here's a link, they run about $70 right now. They have a similar, cheaper set available, but it is usually just used for airsoft.

If $70 dollars is too steep, the Tacticon sights I listed are worth looking at. I've never handled them, but they seem like a reputable company and the positive reviews are just about identical to Magpul's. There was also talk of the UTG iron sights. I checked them out, but the reviews weren't as positive. Sucks, because they look badass.
In any case, my rifle won't be here for about another two weeks. I'll keep a look out for a good sale that may change my mind.
Incidentally, I handled a Smith and Wesson M&P Sport II .22lr a few months ago. I was deeply considering getting a little .22 AR for some cheap practice. It came with some sights that I absolutely loved. Very snappy, great construction, very nice. Turns out, they were Magpul Gen 2s.
