Well, I'm sure you can use Magpul's back up irons on them, but I suppose the real question is how effective are they on an STG 556 or the STG-XM17 E4.
I've never handled an AUG or the MSAR clone, so I don't know exactly what the site picture is like with or without optics. Looking around at other forums, I haven't really found the answer I'm looking for. From what I can tell, you either buy the STG 556 with or without the integrated optic, without usually coming with rail system on top for mounting your preferred optic, however, I don't see any provisions for Irons on the STG 556 in the event you don't want to mount any optics on it, or simply don't have the funds to do so.
I probably will have an optic available for this rifle by the time I get it, but until then, I'd like to know if you can mount the MBUIS on this rifle, and if there is enough room for you to mount your chosen optic still. It's a fairly compact little rifle, and from the pictures I've seen, it really doesn't seem to leave a whole lot of room on the rails once an ACOG or EOtech has been installed.
EDIT: Please disregard this topic, I've found my answer elsewhere, thanks for taking the time to read this.
