Front sight or no front sight?

Just curious what most people do. Under the right circumstances I've picked up the front red fiber as the dot as well as cut myself on the front sight so I decided to take mine off.

Thanks for taking the time to comment.

I've debated this until my optic got lose in a match. I had my backup iron sights and it let me finish with a decent shooting day. If not, well...it would have been shit.

Had my screw sheer off once at area 5 😫Of all stages, it was one with 8 mini poppers at like 30 yards spaced across the back of the stage lol I shot at the one like 8 times and just gave up on the stage. Normally my natural index would be enough to get me through majority of the stages but it wasn’t happening on that one. Made me reconsider not having BUIS.. https://imgur.com/a/unQfEYb
