Rolex Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 OK- so on CO guns- does anyone have an opinion on red dot and green FO front sight. AKA- does the red/green distract while shooting in matches? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe4d Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 yeh my opinion is lose the front sight all together. Cleaner sight picture. You dont need all those gizmos floating around in your line of sight. Same reason most iron sight users dump all the doodad dots on the rear sight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m700 Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 I would think that the red may throw you off a bit. On the other hand green seems brighter to me so more visible. Throw some electrical tape on there and rip it off if the optic goes down.(: But seriously Im not an optics guy but dont know if Id cowitness with fiber if I were.

Rolex Posted June 9, 2020 Author Share Posted June 9, 2020 The front is CW- only because the Romeo 1 pro has a notch in back- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psyops Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 I leave my green fiber front sight in place. If I have a VERY close target array, I just blast away (usually not seeing my red dot) and use my front sight as a quick pick-up for those close in shots. And as the stage progresses, I honestly don't really see the green front sight. I see my red dot, settle on target and do my thing. I've done it with and without. Leaving it there works for me....!

JGus Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 I've got two X5 Legions I use in CO, and I left the green FO front sight on both. Using a DPP 7.5 moa. Honestly I don't even notice the front sight when shooting in competition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcc7x7 Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 Frt sight is on my RX cause it's used as a carry gun. Both x5s have no frt sight just the optic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadBomber Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 If it's a game gun, lose the front sight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JatCarver Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 I forget mine is even there, not distracting at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
