Converting M4 carrying handle sights

Is there any way to convert the carrying handle sights for an M4 to something without the ugly handle? I've got a few spares around and want to try this.

... Cut the handle off and leave the rear sight up?

This is a common way of creating a cheap BUIS - simply saw off the carry handle and round out the rough edges and paint:

Thanks for the info. Will I need to go through the base or can it be left intact?

What about totally replacing it with another rear sight?

Nah, I've already done it. Saved myself a bit of cash.
