Worst iron sights in Apex?

Now that the G7 Scout and Spitfire are back on the ground, it might be time to revisit this topic. I think the Spitfire has the worst in the game. Sure, you can see through the little hole well eno...

@dSKyNafinchin The problem I have with iron sight G7 is trying to hit headshots. If you're high enough for the HS, you can hardly see your target! I have a bright colored reticle, and on some weapons, G7 included, it's not as helpful. Hemlok has gotten an honorable mention here. I like the Hemlok iron sights OK until medium range or longer. Not the best but not the worst.

I've been doing some scout of action with iron sights lately. It's really hard on the back targets! I've gotten my score with irons up to maybe 80% of my average with the bruiser. I'm feeling better with it but I don't think I'll ever like it.

A couple weapons have what are, for me, bad iron sights because the back sight is so large. CAR and 3030 go into this category for me. I wish they'd design a legendary CAR that has a different sight, like the R99 has. 3030 has two skins with slightly better iron sights, but not better enough for me to spend crafting on it.

I'll throw in a reminder here that one's personal perception is going to affect their list of sights they don't like. Spitfire might be the only one that just about everyone can agree on!

@pandareno1999 That's the weird thing with the Scout, for me. I absolutely agree that it blocks a large part of my view, which is the main reason I don't like other irons like the Spitty and whatnot. I just have a weird connection with the Scout, and can actually hit my shots with it. I'm much better with the 2x, but I'll happily use irons until I can find one.

The Spitfire is definitely one of the worst, Lol! I don't like the bulky sights, or the circular ones. I'm pretty trash with the Hemlock, unless I get a sight on it, so props to you for being able to use it! I feel like I'm not a fan of the Prowler irons either, but I can't remember off the top of my head, since I don't usually grab that gun.

I honestly can't think of what the 3030 looks like, because I almost never pick it up. I suck with that thing! I don't like having to wait for it to "charge" my shots

If you don't already have Dark Fright for the prowler, I suggest crafting it. It's noticeably superior to the others.

  @pandareno1999 I'll definitely check that one out tonight. Doesn't ring a bell, so I don't think I have that one. Good lookin out!
