Another good video. You're one of the best BF related youtubers I know of. You can tell how much effort you put into each video, which is much appreciated.
It's also nice that he's stuck with battlefield. Most of the more popular youtubers have moved to CoD, which I don't blame them for at all, but not my cup of tea
kinda ironic how the Enfield 1917 was considered to have some of the best ironsights (and being basically the best bolt rifle of WW1), and how unwieldy it ends up being in the game
@@theerdem4698 because they take a large portion of the screen. In games irons need to be clear. Irl, a sight like the one from the Enfield is way better because it gives you a longer sight picture and the sight picture itself is better than a V notch because it was a ghost ring style sight.
"Aiming with the QBU-88's iron sights is like trying to aim at someone through a hole in the wall." Rainbow Six Siege players: I'll take your entire stock!
The irony is that "bad" videogame iron sights are better and visually clearer than iron sights in real life. Especially considering how your eye can only actually focus on one or the other, front or rear sight. Obviously, you focus more on the front sight, which leaves the rear sight blurry from your irl perspective and the notches and apatures(holes) on rear sights are much smaller, to fit the front post more narrowly and block more than, pretty much any of these sights. Just saying.😋
Battlefield 4 weapons should have been this entire list. There was maybe 3 guns that I maybe could tolerate with iron sights, otherwise I ran an optic.
@@jbeverley67 I think it was the AS VAL, SR2, and AEK that I'd use with iron sights. Everything else I either ran with an optic or did it for the meme of not being able to hit my target.
In BF4 the only guns I ran with irons were the AK variants, Grozas, AS VAL and the M870. The rest were absolute rubbish. I get it, they want to make realistic irons but sadly games cant render them the way we see them IRL.
Fun fact about the Type 97 every optic other than the Iron sights and aa sights are mounted on the left hand side of the gun, actually increasing your visability somewhat, and for the type 11 lmg it has a "ping" sound much like the garand but after every 5 shots :)
Kris, I'm surprised you didn't put the Shorty 12G (BF4) in the list, since it's the only weapon with iron sights that actively disable ADS when equipped. Still, I'm glad to see the Famas and QBU-88 made the list. 😂
The M60e4's iron are wierd but I kind of like them since they were very clear. Felt beastly compared to those WIMPY RED DOT SIGHTS. KILLLLLLLL. Also to be really picky, the Radium sights look different on the Vitali, which makes it far clearer. Surprised the C-93 Carbine didn't come up (then again you already did it) since its the only gun that practically removes your sight completely with every shot.
I don't know about the sa58 it does look like a weird angle but the sight picture is quite similar to the sa80 I used in the British army as the correct sight picture has the left and right fork prong tips in line with the rear sight ring
Idk, man. From the look of it, someone messed up the model - front sight is too thick and rear one is missing the notch, fits the misaligned description. bf3 one was better (and far better than ones used on m60 in mw1 and mw3, bo1 version was the only tolerable but ultimately wrong too. If you can make use of them, who are we to judge, you deserve a salute (salute).
The Radium Sight is only acceptable when it is put on the SMLE Infantry and the SMLE LOA Rifle because the standard iron sight is so irritating to use. The same with the Vetterli Vitali 1870 rifle. There are also some BFV weapons, which iron sights are almost unusable because of specific Skin customisations, those rifles which are covered with cloths on the barrel to be specific. The worst rifle to use with a specific skin is the Boys AT (x3 and x6 scope version) with the ,,Snakebite“-Skin because the feather accessories is blocking half of the damn scope. Maybe this topic would make for another video Something like ,,Top XX Worst Gun Skins, Accessories, Specialisations and Scopes in Battlefield Games,,
The problem is no game has shown a weapon with ironsights (aside from pistols) that would look like if you sighted down the real one (in games they either appear misaligned, or one half is too small or too big).
M1903’s sights are bad but once u see someone you just have to spam bullets at them till one of you dies or you can switch to bolt action with it for range and semi for close
Is 110 to 150 ping any good? Because often times when I play I see myself getting melted in near an instant, plus how accurate is the Howell Automatic? My shots some to fly off in a different direction all of the time in bf 1
Er10r_4O1 r from 60 below it’s good for me. Even in the 80s it starts to be kinda bad, The howell is meh for me, it has a bipod but the storm one gas horrible sights and the marksman is kinda inaccurate unless you stand still. The farquhar hill and selbstlaser 1916(factory) have better accuracy and a good magazine size. If you want just accuracy, use the liu, selb1906 or mondragon
100+ ping means you will most likely have to lead your shots more slightly. And with random bullet deviation in BF1, there's no telling where your bullets go
well... it could be better, it could be worse... is not good, is not the worst. About the howell and your shots going anywhere... its a mechanic introduced in bf1, randmon bullet deviation... wich does exacly what the name says. And is mainly seen in automatic weapons in bf1.
@@stgsragud3554 yes I'm well aware of that mechanic, but I'm just confused on how I went from some what alright to hot garbage, and I'm starting to question my skills because a lot of the times I could swear I hit the guy in med range and he didn't take any damage. It's probably because of my wifi connection and me being generally bad at the game
They only seem to accurately recreate the sights that work better with irl binocular vision (aperture sights mainly). a lot of the guns that have open notch sights would be a deal more accurate and more usable in general if they just made them realistic. Doesn't help that guns are super close to the camera in the bf games regardless of fov, which really annoys me.
From the look of it, scar-h from bf4 and hamr from bo2 have the realistic irons (will have to verify with a real life example), while scar-h/l from mw2/3 have not.
Con la tipo 11 y la tipo 97 me siento incomodo con la pocision de las miras al lado derecho pero tiene sentido ya que mas que nada son armas estacionarias no estaban diseñadas para ser usadas en combate directo y con la Thompson la mira es mas comoda para combate a corta distancia de lejos es muy dicil aputar con precisión
in game these are pretty bad but irl most of those are good sights and the reason the thompson sights are bad is because the charging handle is part of the sights
Let’s be honest bf1 had the best iron sights. In bfv they’re too big, it’s like the soldier swallowed the stock and is looking at them point blank. In bf4/h/3 they’re also big and wonky but red dots exist so you don’t mind them. In bfv the reticle is terrible and the nydar sight is plain bad so yeah
Some of these iron sights really do suck, and I personally would have even thrown the Groza family's irons and the ghost ring attachment from BF4, though I do believe playing on PC (not to be THAT guy) has made some of these sights more tolerable. At least, I imagine they would be. I haven't much experience with most of these games.
I really loved the ak-5c ironsights in BF4. Even though there were other carbines that were leagues better than it, I still loved running the AK-5c. I was kinda triggered when u talked shit about the SCAR-H irons, but looking at it now they are kinda dogshit.

It was also more common than the M1903, but the M1917 being a DLC weapon makes it the opposite.
idk why no one likes its sigths its quite good imo

@@theerdem4698 it was the infantry gun version in the game for me
Enfield 1917 used the same rear sight with BAR. BAR come later and adopted Enfield's rear sight
One of my favorite sight in BFV is the m1 garand’s iron sights
The only semi auto that I can use with iron sights and destroy the enemy team, never equiped 3x sights on it
dead ktx I really wish they made the good sight the iron sight instead of the 2x scope
Yeah. I mean the garand is op, so it doesn’t matter what you put on there for sights.
Owen Benedict I prefer the iron sights because I use the garand up close
same here
I was expecting the groza series on battlefield 4
Unpopular opinion but I really like the Groza's sights, I almost exclusively use them whenever I use either of those guns
I was expecting the MTAR and the LSAT
@@ricardogomes6240 both those guns dont have bad ironsights though

an94 from bf3... just like watching through a keyhole. Great weapon with any optic... but god... how hard was to unlock any optic
Been waiting for this since playing the C93carbine.
If BF3 Famas isn't on top, I'm unsubing :P .
Edit : 2nd place. Well, I guess this counts :)
The famas is kinda good but not with that SIGHT
Great video, your honesty one of the best BF youtubers and you deserve a lot more subscribers for the amount of effort you put in
There’s a surprising amount of bad iron sights in bf1
It was ww1
Joyce Diamond I’m not judging, bf1 was is my favorite battlefield game. Just saying I was a bit surprised
LaundrySauce well it’s cause your pretty much forced to use them many people don’t notice them
It's from an older war
You probably didn’t notice them because you have fun playing the game, I love bf1 too and didn’t really realize it either, bf4 on the other hand lmao
Battlefield 4 weapons should have been this entire list. There was maybe 3 guns that I maybe could tolerate with iron sights, otherwise I ran an optic.
Asval had my favorite iron sights
I think that was the idea, both in bf and cod games. Both have their fair shares of realistic-looking (lousy) and unrealistic (clean) irons.
@@jbeverley67 I think it was the AS VAL, SR2, and AEK that I'd use with iron sights. Everything else I either ran with an optic or did it for the meme of not being able to hit my target.

If you want a challenge, use the bf4 famas with canted iron sights. Literally impossible to look through.
I don't like iron sights at the best of times, so this a vision of a personal hell. Thanks Kris!

The sights of the Pattern 14 and Model 1917 are actually applauded as very intuitive
The M60E4 sights irritate me simply due to the fact that they are more misaligned than a stereotypical british man's teeth
As soon as I read the title of the video, I immediately thought of the Scar-H.
God i hated the sights on the scar. Especially on the DMR version before you could unlock a nice sight
They were so bad that I refuse to use that fucking gun.
I actually prefer the Radium sights over the iron sights, I'm not sure why
Same
So that's what the sights of the type 2A look like
you make good videos, gave you your 300th like, can you make more reviews of weapons in BFV?
The reload for the Johnson is pretty cool
IKR
Love the mas44 and Enfield 1917 iron sights but that's me.
Kris, I'm surprised you didn't put the Shorty 12G (BF4) in the list, since it's the only weapon with iron sights that actively disable ADS when equipped.

What about the AA sights of the Chuchat?
And the lewis gun aa sights
@@badgermcbadger1968 I prefer them over the regular ones, in BF1
But Chuchat has great regular sights
@@idansheffer56 how can you aim through that thing at least the reticle on the chuchat is usable but on the lewis gun its pretty bizzare
i love the chauchats aa
I think you forgot the Howell auto rifle from BF1 mate, great video as always though!
AA sight fixs that problem, but I understand what you mean
The M60e4's iron are wierd but I kind of like them since they were very clear. Felt beastly compared to those WIMPY RED DOT SIGHTS.
KILLLLLLLL.
Also to be really picky, the Radium sights look different on the Vitali, which makes it far clearer.
Surprised the C-93 Carbine didn't come up (then again you already did it) since its the only gun that practically removes your sight completely with every shot.
So satisfying hitting a headshot with iridium sights though.
I couldn't use the m60 iron sights in bfbc2 to save my life, but oddly enough in bfbc2 Vietnam I was a monster using the same guns sights lol
I don't know about the sa58 it does look like a weird angle but the sight picture is quite similar to the sa80 I used in the British army as the correct sight picture has the left and right fork prong tips in line with the rear sight ring
For me was the MP412 REX from BF3. I liked it's reloading animation but hated its sights
The type 97 mg's iron sight isn't that bad, obviously it could be better but once u get the feeling for it, u can shred ppl with it, good vid btw
Is it bad that I actually like the M60 iron sights in BF4? Like I exclusively use it over a red dot most of the time
Idk, man. From the look of it, someone messed up the model - front sight is too thick and rear one is missing the notch, fits the misaligned description. bf3 one was better (and far better than ones used on m60 in mw1 and mw3, bo1 version was the only tolerable but ultimately wrong too. If you can make use of them, who are we to judge, you deserve a salute (salute).

Something like
,,Top XX Worst Gun Skins, Accessories, Specialisations and Scopes in Battlefield Games,,
M1941 Johnson Lmg has really good iron sights, idk why he designed the rifle variant like that
The problem is no game has shown a weapon with ironsights (aside from pistols) that would look like if you sighted down the real one (in games they either appear misaligned, or one half is too small or too big).
Ivan Ivanovic that may be true cod ww2 also had both variants and the rifle sights were bad
Neato. This'll be cool
The radium sights on the Lebel are an improvment actually
Finally someone talking about this
If you ever do one on optics, which you probably will: all those weird optical sights are an absolute pain to use.
M1903’s sights are bad but once u see someone you just have to spam bullets at them till one of you dies or you can switch to bolt action with it for range and semi for close
I use radium sights and have no problem with them but I respect your opinion
Real life AN-94: Hold *OUR* vodka.
Is 110 to 150 ping any good?
Because often times when I play I see myself getting melted in near an instant, plus how accurate is the Howell Automatic?
My shots some to fly off in a different direction all of the time in bf 1
That's kinda bad. I live in the middle of the USA, and mine's roughly 30-50. I avoid 100+ servers unless there are no other options
Er10r_4O1 r from 60 below it’s good for me. Even in the 80s it starts to be kinda bad,

Do the AA sights count as iron sights?
What about shotgun ribs?
I hope BF6 has a better Depth of field option for iron sights and scopes; the outside edges should blur out to the point of appearing very thin.
You just want a small stick with a pointy end as a foresight and just a big ring as the backsight
The sights of the AWS are also weirdly shiny compared to the rest of the gun
My No.1 and 2 is gotta be the SMLE and G98 from BF1.
They only seem to accurately recreate the sights that work better with irl binocular vision (aperture sights mainly). a lot of the guns that have open notch sights would be a deal more accurate and more usable in general if they just made them realistic. Doesn't help that guns are super close to the camera in the bf games regardless of fov, which really annoys me.
You should make one video using the Best Ironsights
One of my favorite iron sights in BF1 are the Enfield's
The worst iron sights are hands down the m416 from bf4.(I also think that the sar has them but I don’t remember)
Hi kris, your the best youtuber btw
Cheers
BEFORE I START I WANT SEBALDSTER BF1 medic TO BE UP THERE
There are two different Selbstladers in bf1.
pls do the top 20 best iron sights Kris.
I am truly offended that BF3's PKP Pecheneg isn't up there
Oh I HATE the BF4 M60. Even if you put a red dot on, it keeps the damn front sight. What's even the point then?
Good video but I was expecting the an94 from bf4
Same here, my eyes never know what to look at with that awkward rectangle
Scar in cod: god tier irons Scar in bf: wtf is thissss
From the look of it, scar-h from bf4 and hamr from bo2 have the realistic irons (will have to verify with a real life example), while scar-h/l from mw2/3 have not.

putting a reflex sight on the Garand is a mortal sin
if the scope on the M1 Garand was a more historical accurate one, I'd have no problem using it on the Garand
The MAS 44 looks kinda like the M1A1 carbine irons.
Never thought I'd hear kk say "side bitches"
The only part I disagree with is the radium sights. Very rifle dependent
Wait a minute, where's Howell Automatic?
Im sorry but radium sights are actually quite useful depending on which rifle you are using and your personal preference
I also kinda like the thompson sights
i really like the mas 44 sights a lot D:
"PEEP SIGHTS ARE GREAT" Yeah if you don't want to hit anything.
in game these are pretty bad but irl most of those are good sights and the reason the thompson sights are bad is because the charging handle is part of the sights

An underappreciated feature of BF1 is the ability to change the ads multiplier to what you felt most comfortable with, sad to see it removed for BFV
I use the type 11 and it’s more like a quick scope kind of gun
Definitely the AR160 from BF4. Like the QBU but worse.
Subscribed at 65,000 😉🙂 great videos
I like the BAR sights
what about AN-94 from BF3?

BFBC2 UMP45 am I a joke to you?
I very much like the bar sights
Those irons scare me
The famas from bf3 was absolutely atrocious
Someone never used the G36C
#3 is just pain.
The worst sights are the buck horn sights. They suck both in real life and in battlefield.
Never understood why the iron sights are so ugly. It's like dice wants no one to use them.
I hate the BAR sight but I love the weapon:-(
The Uzi sights are better than any of the other sights on the list. They’re not worse than QBU
that BF3 Famas sight was fucking cancer
Me only playing the radium sights:
I would add the mares leg to this list
Shadocaster13 they aren’t that bad in general, but with a gun that requires that much prescision, I understand
I really loved the ak-5c ironsights in BF4. Even though there were other carbines that were leagues better than it, I still loved running the AK-5c. I was kinda triggered when u talked shit about the SCAR-H irons, but looking at it now they are kinda dogshit.
The QBU-88 should be number one.
Exactly, either it, m6oe4 from bf4, or arx-160 (ones that come to mind).
FAMAS is basically worst iron sight in every game
You’ll aim with sights of iron you will like it
Btf 1 bodeo had the best sight ever period!!
Where have you been, I have been bored.
Really? Wheres the AN-94 from BC2?
AEK-971 just a giant heart shaped front post in that game
I really lile the BAR iron sights in bf1 🤔
M60s still got some good damage though
Pretty sure the hk416 from bf4 shoulda been here
