minnesota1 Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 I like green as a color for fiber optic sights. Can you recommend me a front sight? Mine is worn out and I have no idea what it is. It's on a winchester super x 2 which is basically the fn slp. It has a type of green sight on the front and has two screws holding it on They are probably 2" apart. I don't think it's a fiber optic or I'd change it out. It's glass type encapsulated so it's a little weird, but it came with the gun. I just want to see what people are using out there. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlvrDragon50 Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 I like my Champion EasyHit sight, esp as I'm partially cross-eye dominant. https://www.amazon.com/Champion-EasyHit-2-5mm-Diameter-Shotgun/dp/B004U8M52E Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ming the Merciless Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 I've been using the HIVIZ TriComp front sight for the last 5 years. I use the green triangle light pipe. For long slug shots, just use the tip of the triangle and for fast shots use the whole triangle. It comes with several different colors in round and triangle. https://www.midwayusa.com/product/914567/hiviz-tricomp-front-sight-for-shotguns-with-vent-rib-and-removable-front-bead-fiber-optic-with-6-interchangeable-lite-pipes# Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TalkingMonkey Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 HiViz Tricomp for me too. Using the green triangle pipe on my M3K. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chase214 Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 I had a pistol front site installed on mine I don't think I could go a diff route after using that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm cross-eyed dominant too and this really helps out. It also let's you know if you have a bad head position on the stock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BradfromND Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 I had Briley install one of their front and rear sight sets on my m2. The front sight is the same as many others except that it is dovetailed into the rib and can't come out. I've had my front sight screw come loose on a stage and it was a big problem. Their rear sight is really nice. It's basically a rear sight milled in to the rib and is windage and elevation adjustable. Check them out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adamj Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 Another vote for the HiViz Tricomp. I like using the peak of the triangle for distance slug shots and the entire sight for bird shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IHMSA15151 Posted November 18, 2018 Share Posted November 18, 2018 I use the Hi-Viz magnetic sight. Attaches right over top your original bead. It stays in place and is really bright. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AustinT Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 Word of wisdom on the hi-viz (or anything else with one screw, for that matter) - install it, take the fiber out, drill a hole in the back of it into your vent rib, and stick a roll pin in there. Otherwise you have a high likelihood of it being a sideways hi-viz in the middle of a stage one day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is the same sight as the Hi-viz but is dovetailed into the rib and can't come out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
technetium-99m Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 Have a dovetail cut in the rib and install a handgun front sight. Dawson has a ton of heights available and they are easily replaced if you smash the heck out of it. Easy to adjust for windage too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IHMSA15151 Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 The Hi-Viz magnetic one is a channel shape that goes over the rib. There's no way it's rotating. I've had it 3 yrs. and shot hundreds of rounds, birdshot, buckshot and slugs, hasn't come off yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djbb98 Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 I also like the champion one. It must sticks on with double sided tape so no permanent modifications but everyone I know with one has had it on for a long time. I though it would help with my cross eyed dominance and it might have, but I also had a briley rear sight machined into the barrel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
