iron sighs are unpleasant to use on scoped weapons if you have to fight some that gets close to you
can we get a button to toggle iron sights on a scoped weapon the same way that we can toggle firing modes

Yes you can already, it’s currently in game! On console it is a light tap on left trigger and hood down for scope. You can look through the bottom peep hole to view and use iron sights.
Check your setting menu and you will see the different “aim” buttons.

yes but what I am saying is (in my personal opinion) the way you use iron sights in the game right now with scoped weapons is unpleasant at best and I think it would be better if we could toggle irons or scopes with a separate button like how switching firing modes work in this game

I do hip fire with BA sniper all the time when someone is near.
Using iron sights is imho just waste of time. This change, even tho a positive one, would have significant impact on like 10 people who even tries to ADS with snipers. Every other player is either casual who doesn’t guve a shtt or decent player who can hipfire (which is extremely easy in enlisted).

On some scoped weapons, the normal iron sights are simply disabled when you have the scope on(Example: Sniper FG-42 II)
If a sniper doesn’t have this and the iron sights are unpleasant it’s a known issue, if you mean for example removing the scope entirely mid combat, then it seems unnecessary, since it would need an animation.

I mean when you press aim you will look down the scope but let’s say you want to look through irons the you press a button and after you press lets say M (example) next time you press the RMB you will be looking through the irons instead of the scope. just like how you can switch between firing modes on some weapons you would be able to switch between aiming modes (this could also apply to weapons with grenade launchers that would have separate sight for the grenade launcher in real life like the kar98 with grenade launcher and m1 grand with grenade launcher and m1 carbine with grenade launcher). it would not remove the scope just “switch aiming modes”
