The detachable carry handle Willard put on his M1956A2 was primarily for looks. He wanted it to look, as much as possible, like an AR-10.
With a loaded PMAG, it tips the scales at 10 lb. 12.7 oz.
With a fixed rear sight it drops to 10 lb. 7.1 oz.
With a Magpul BUIS it falls to 10 lb. 3.2 oz.
All three sights do the same job with regards to the shooting with iron sights.
One is for looks.
One, the lightest, allows easy attachment of an optic.
