Actually, you need to order over the fone ~ I've done it frequently. They don't do online sales. There are other things not listed on the website that they sell. Give'em a call. They're good people/excellent customer service ~ and will be responsive.

Actually, the samething happened w/me  :-[  I actually called them to complain that I couldn't locate the ordering page and wound up a lil' chagrin and placing orders several times since.

YOu were correct... offered to send the sights discussed free of charge till I decided if I liked them then I could send payment...sending some of the flourescent -I guess- fronts to try with all three colors available, two heights; discussed the front site measurements of blades compared to the rear notch.. etc. went from  Cust. Serv. to Engineering.. and discussed all the concerns and problems and recent experience.. Your statement was actually understatement ....
I WAS IMPRESSED.
I was gonna buy the premier adjustable and comparing it to the millet with white outline and adapter for the 83.... adjustability ... and decided to try the different front sights first. Others had suggested that, but I was quite impressed with the depth and breadth of the  sincere effort to address the problem...
and IF IT DOES NOT WORK FOR ME I CAN SEND IT ALL BACK...???!!!!!!!!!!!!WOW...
I am thinking of using the ONeill front for good light and the corresponding insert sight for dark thirty shooting... I am still probablly going to get the adjustable rear unless I get used to the other two rears I am going to be working with : express and square notch feild grade rears... I will find something that works unbeleivably well for me sometimes in the future.

They're one of the few that one can recommend to friends w/confidence. Spoke w/them today also. Apparently sales had stepped away for a moment and Don answered and we had a good discussion re difficulty in selling bullets to individuals in CA (we got some crazy laws here ~ if it weren't for Prop 13 capping my property tax to 1973, I'd be  g o n e). Didn't make me feel rushed and politely answered my questions reminiscesent of a bygone era that I trust will be around for a long long time.
