Opinions - Ruger GP100 After-Market Sights?

Everyone on the ruger forum seems to love the fire sights. My personal favorite is a fiber front and black rear.

I think you appreciate the upgrade.

I just ordered a fiber optic sight from Hiviz. I'll post again after I try it out.

Hi Viz works great. I left the rear sight as is. it is adjustable to really dial in the fiber optic. don't worry about Hi Viz telling you to use a gunsmith either, that is just a CYA thing. you can do it in about 5 minutes.

I put some Meprolights on mine, substantial improvement over the factory sights.

Ruger has fiber optic sights for the GP100:

I out a set on mine and love them.

First visit to the range today with the Hi-Viz sites on the GP-100. the good news is that the visibilty was vastly improved; better grouping, faster re-aquire. I am sold on the Hiviz sites. i found that the red lite-pipe worked best in the range siting at black silhouette targets.

The bad news is, to test I bought the only ammo available at the local range in either .357 mag or .38 special. i bought a couple of boxes of Blazer aluminum case JHP .357 mag's for $28 a box. Made for an expensive session.

I had a set of Williams Firesights installed on mine. Pinpoint green and red dots, very bright. Big improvement.

My Redhawk has Hi-Viz.
It's VERY easy to see.

I put Mepros on my 4", and the HiViz on my 6".
