Contender Fiber Optic Sights
« on: January 28, 2008, 08:47:42 AM »
I need a set of Fiber Optic sights for my 10inch Contender,  Does anyone know where to get some?   How about a brass bead front sight?

I have an older 10" .45 mag barrel. I bought a fiber rear sight from Fox Ridge. The front sight was soldered on so I cut a groove in it, drilled two holes, and mounted a piece of fiber with some fine wire epoxied in the holes. Fiber is much easier to see than brass.
