Fiber optics?

[Guy B. Meredith]

Has anyone tried these? Comments? Any better products around? I like the three dot setup.

No experience with these particular sights. I have a fiber optic front sight on the STI I used for IPSC competition. It was great for that application. I also have front and rear fiber optics on my KelTec PRM 30. My only beef is that I carry the PRM a lot on the ranch in a Yaqui slide and have broken the front rod a couple of times banging around on tractors and pickup trucks. Easy to replace though. I have a stock of rods. A couple of minutes and a bit of heat from a Bic and I'm good to go.

Like your sig line about apostrophes. Probably the most common grammatical error on the internet. Did these folks not pay attention in school?

I like TFOs. They show up in all light levels or no light at all.

TFOs?

Probably not going to fit your application but they are good sights IMO.

The photo above looks good. I'm thinking of installing Meprolight tritium dots, but found the fiber optics while looking for a simple three dot.

I am going down to the local rental range for a session with a three dot equipped S&W pistol to get an idea how they work for me. The current black rear and front red do not cut it in low light--even in the shade of the bay shelter. I am practicing shooting up to 25 yards without my prescription and end up seeing a double rear sight rather than just blurred.
