For the rear sight, I installed the extra primitive sight that came with it then filed it down leaving just a small flat portion above the barrel flats, then I blued it. I have the peep also. I’m sure track of the wolf would have what you’re looking for. If they don’t have a front fiber optic, maybe check Williams gunsights. I use the original front blade. I’ve tried applying hi vis sight paint but it always comes off. If I do it again, I’m going to apply the paint, let it dry, remove it with a blade, then epoxy it back on.
I have one. With the different inserts it's great for target work. Being hooded it doesn't allow much light in it so hunting early morning or late in the evening you might have trouble seeing the front sight.
Marble arms. Not fiber optic but it seems to do well so far on my GPR. If this doesn’t pan out with my vision, then I’m going to need a yellow fiber optic sight.
Yep, installed one last fall. Far superior for sighting than a fiber optic. I use the thinnest squared post for optimal sight picture. Or you might try a high patridge style target front sight. Optic sights tend to "glow", and the rounded top do not make for the best fine six oclock hold. They are ok for quick point and shoot at short ranges.
I have one installed on one of my sidelocks. It works great at the range in good lighting. However, they may be difficult to use in certain low light hunting situations. I know this from personal experience. Hence the reason I use a small, green fiber optic front sight for hunting along with my Lyman rear peep sight. I am capable of consistently hitting a target the size of a bread toaster out at 200 yds. The bull in my avatar was taken with this set up at 208 yds.
Thank you for that link. I just put Williams “ Fire sights “ on a T/C barrel to help me to be able to distinguish a sight picture. Typical primitive sights just look like a blur after my lens implants were done. Still struggling with vision issues but the Firesights definitely help. As someone else already mentioned however… they don’t provide a “fine bead”. “ Clunky or chunky ” is a good description. If these fiber optic options work out on my T/C barrels, I’m going to give’em a try on an SMR, 42 “ swamped..
.I have a fiber optic front (dovetail) sight and a blank for a 3/8 dovetail. Will ship both for $50.
