The STAR one folds forward, much like a SCAR or HK416 sight.
I tried placing it the other way, but it was designed to be on the front of the RAS or one of those chamber blocks that have RIS rather than the triangle sight.
The RAS was very easy to install. I had a 3 point loop hole wrench to tighten the barrel nut first, then I put the RAS on, and then tighten it with that ring you see between the upper body and the RAS. There are two screws that you install on the back end side of the RAS to prevent rotation... very sturdy, I recommend it.
I got it for $106 USD shipped off Ebay, MSRP is around $250 USD.
1 observation: I believe that CA's rails on the metal body are too high. My ICS FF RIS and this YKH FF RAS both have a lower rail.
