The '''iron sight''' is an open, unmagnified system used to assist the aiming of typically firearms. Multiple [[Human]] weapons have a lack of iron sights, but it has been speculated that it is due to the fact that the [[United Nations Space Command]] personnel who operate them have HUDs that assist them, negating the need for iron sights. Also, a number of U.N.S.C. weapons are said to have concealed iron sights. | The '''iron sight''' is an open, unmagnified system used to assist the aiming of typically firearms.

*Interestingly enough, as the standard service rifle for the UNSC Defense Forces, the [[MA5 series]] (except for the [[MA5K]]) of firearms do not sport any form of visible iron sights. They're likely concealed along the top of the weapon, or it is actually a part of the electronics suite, not that the display seems capable of full-color. | *Interestingly enough, as the standard service rifle for the UNSC Defense Forces, the [[MA5 series]] (except for the [[MA5K]]) of firearms do not sport any form of visible iron sights.
