Why do you want to clutter your sight picture with inconsequential crap?
Its a nice sturdy sight. But lacking any kind of dot or light gathering ability at the rear. makes it a non starter for me.
Yeah, like fiber optic inserts in the front, or those radio active bulbs Trijicon uses.Why do you want to clutter your sight picture with inconsequential crap?
It would be really nice if the video showed how the rear sight can be adjusted (both windage and elevation).
Would these sights be a good fit for precision type shooting in hunting applications?
For normal daytime shooting I've always assumed that markings on the rear sight would tend to grab focus from the front sight.
But for low light, dusk shooting conditions, I wonder if tritium or fiber optics would help with sight alignment.. Thoughts?
That's a nylon screw? It looks like a zinc plated metal screw.
Seems to me it'd look better black.
Surely there is a reason they use that one.....
The screw looks to be stainless steel. The shims used to adjust vertical are made of nylon. I'm just asking if there has been any noticeable cold flow of the nylon shims that could contribute to loosening of the mounted rear blade screw over time. Thread locking compund on the screw would assist in mitigating this if it were indeed an issue.

We’ve used this sight adjustment system since 1996 on my custom Pro-Sight® Installations (And YES, PRO-SIGHT® is a Registered Trademark of mine and you folks out there need to knock off the use of it, and I’m asking you NICE, as a Gentleman ).
The shim adjustment system has been used from Alaska to Tucson on DUTY GUNS and on CARRY GUNS (and overseas in inclement weather). So far, NO problems.
P.S. - Dan I still need to PM you as I have some questions and could use your advice. I’m just SWAMPED right now with emails and phone calls. Thanks!

The white screw, to my mind, makes it look cheap. Like you ran out of the correct screw, so used this one instead to get the sight out the door.
The proof is definitely in the field testing. My concerns are totally academic and on the fringe, I can see by your statements that you have the design down cold.
Yes, please PM me, I am a Mechanical Engineer by profession and have worked with many plastic types for various applications (also, metals of course). I would be glad to assist in any questions you may have without hesitation.

Trust me, I have spared no expense bringing this sight to market. It’s a special screw, low profile and all. I even had my own front sight hold down screws made to my specs, too.
