This mod tweaks most of the primary weapons iron sights from the 4 main classes for a more realistic iron sight image. Because its a video game they made the iron sights, mainly the rear ones really wide so they give the shooter a clearer image but to me all the guns feel like the iron sights despite the rear sights full existing are just too far away so we're left with a single front sight to guide us. My fix was to look at the real life counterparts of these iron sights and how big they actually are compared to battlefield 1's interpretation.

To get this and any other mod to work on the new EA app:
1. Run the game at least once before modding (then close it again)
2. Open Frosty Mod Manager
3. Select your EA app game (in this case Battlefield 1)
4. At the top press "Tools" and then press "Options"
5. At the top press "Launch Options"
6. Enable "Platform Launching Enabled" with the tick box checked
7. In "Platform" underneath change your launcher to "EADesktop"
8. Open the game through Frosty and it should work

So this mod may be a small boost to your accuracy or may hinder it, depending on your playstyle but nonetheless they are now much tighter and more "ironsighty".

Small tweaks where made on most rifles and some have been left out but I plan to do this to all of the guns in-game eventually. 

Despite this some rather larger tweaks where made notably to the Springfield1903 and the BAR. These rifles have had the front sight rings stripped of their WW2 bullshit and the rear sights also tweaked, I plan to remodel the rear sight half aperture to its full ring aperture sight but it'll do for now.

just shove the zip folder into your Frosty mod manager 1.0.6.0 and apply the mod (that's a direct download link to the correct version. its awesome, you should totally press it)

yeah that's pretty much it, hope ya like it!
