I remembered a member asking about painting his front sight a few weeks ago, and I suggested bright nail polish.
My 1911 is parkarized, which includes the front sight, which made it hard to pick up. I've already done this with another gun, and kept meaning to do my 1911 sight. I went over it with nail hardener, which my wife had. It holds up really well. I carried my other gun for a year with the sight painted like this, and it still looks fresh.
Anyway, I finally got around to it last week, and wanted to post pictures for anyone interested.
