chp5 Posted September 12, 2003 Share Posted September 12, 2003 Anyone try the KNS "crosshairs" front sight? It's a hooded front sight that replaces your post and utilizes a little crosshairs. Here's a pic link: http://www.bushmaster.com/shopping/scopes/kns1.asp I looked at one on a rifle and it looked pretty neat, but I never fired it. I wonder how fragile the crosshairs are?

Larry White Posted September 12, 2003 Share Posted September 12, 2003 Can't shoot what you can't see. Cuts too much off your field of vision. Too slow. Larry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PacMan Posted September 13, 2003 Share Posted September 13, 2003 I tried one out at a match shooting steel flashers at about 200 yds, and didn't like it much. My problem was not being able to focus on the crosshair, it was too fine. I was slow coming up to the steel since it was hard to see the front sight. Cool gadget, but no use for action style shooting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lucas Posted September 20, 2003 Share Posted September 20, 2003 I usually read that most people dont like front cross hairs,so i was surprised when i did.I use a DPMS flat top shorty A2 rear moved up a inch or so and my eyes naturally center the two circles ,so the cross hairs for me appear to just be in one . At distance i can better shoot smaller targets then with a post.Closer up, burn them down stages it did restrict field of view alittle but i got used to it while still using small appeture ,and felt the way justiys the means .If the front cross hairs are fuzzy its only a matter of time untill you need perscription glasses,or like me have your persription for your shooting glasses fine tuned by your optomitrist,so you can see clearer closer.I think like me you will never know untill you try it.
