How do you like the MBUS? I just got my Matech in the mail about an hour ago. Its nice, and seems pretty idiot proof, but I'm still not 100% sure on whether or not I like the single small aperture. But then again, I never used the big aperture when I had it available to me either. Plus I've got good eyesight.
I own a few MATECHs and they definitely work. They are not the flashiest or most versatile, but like everything else used by the regular Army they get the job done. My M4 had an ACOG which precluded the use of the BUIS; the optic would have to be removed to use it, but it was there for backup. I've seen Soldiers qualify rather well using the MATECH BUIS when their M68 CCO went down or if they just plain couldn't shoot with the Close Combat Optic. As for the single small aperture, think back to your training. If the Air Force is anything like the Army, you were probably told to never use the large aperture on the M16A2 or A4. That training has stuck with me through the years, and it makes sense as the point of using your iron sights is to place accurate fire on your target.
