The AR-15 rifle comes standard with aperture iron sights. The front iron sight is of the barleycorn style while the rear sight is one of two peepholes. The larger peephole is used for closer engagements and/or automatic fire while the smaller one is used for long range, accurate shots. The front sight can be adjusted for elevation by rotating the sight with the tip of a 5.56 round or a special tool. On the A1 style rear sight, turning the dial on the side adjusts windage by moving the peephole from side to side. The A2 has the same function for windage, and also adds a horizontally oriented dial for adjusting elevation. To aim, position the weapon so that the front sight covers the target and is centered in the peephole.
No.
Not recommended.
Only if there was one made for an AR-15 upper, which there isn't.
No. A standard AR15 has a buffer tube that runs inside the stock that contains the recoil spring.
I do not trust the standard Glock front sight. It is made of plastic and pins to the slide underneath. To me, replacing the standard plastic Glock sights is a NECESSITY and you can buy the Glock with steel or tritium sights or have them installed aftermarket. It's the weakest point in the Glock design.

In the stomach, where is churns around and sights food.
Yes, they sure do chimichanga.
If it is one of the recent Colt .22LR AR15 rifles, then the answer is no - they are completely different internally.
Different values for steel frame vs aluminum, and adjustable sights vs fixed sights. ABOUT $200-$325, depending as always on exact model and condition.
