Looking used AR 15 rear site

I've seen too many flip-ups with 6-8 MOA of lateral dispersion, easily observable by light pressure on either side of the rear sight in rested shooting. Most days I can shoot that well with a service pistol. I'm sure somebody probably makes a good flip-up; I'll never know it because I avoid them altogether.
I want an A2 rear sight or close approximation thereof. Either sight offered in this thread would be better than any flip-up I've yet seen. If you add a dot/reflex sight, don't get obsessed with 'co-witness'. Put the dot/reflex on a QD mount so you can slap it off the gun, should it fail. I like the American Defense version; easy on-off and returns real close to zero.
