TRUGLOGun Sights

These are absolutely my favorite sites. I put them on top of a two barrel shotgun, and I shoot skeet with both eyes open. This site does a great job of that.

Great result with a moderate difficult installation. My eyesight could no longer find the front iron sight of my Hawken replica. Did not want to go the scope route for this replication of an early American percussion cap rifle but I still wanted to use the muzzle loader. These true glow helped solve the problem by providing an illuminated front sight in low light dusk and dawn whitetail hunting. Installation on the Hawken was straightforward except that the instructions called for a different machine screw for the Thomsen Center Hawken for the front sight. I ended up using a different screw and different screw hole for the front sight. I also added Loctite red to all screws (not part of the provided installation instructions. The instructions state "one of two screws may be used to mount the rear site". On the Hawken, only one screw lines up so that was the default for my install. The result yields a replica firearm that maintains the look and feel of the original iron sights.

Fit the gun well . Easy to install . Bore sited them in . Have not shot the gun yet. They look nice

I got this product years ago and I'm just now reviewing it. I put these truglo sites on a Howa 1500 in .375 Ruger caliber. For those of you that don't know anything about guns it's a high-powered medium bore cartridge and The recoil is bordering uncomfortable...meaning it kicks like hell!!But, just like me, these sites take the punishment and keep on going. On some fiber optic sites I've lost plenty of light pipes but I've never lost a light pipe on a TruGlow product.Great sites you can put them on anything muzzleloader or centerfire rifle. They make plenty of shotgun sights too but these are rifle sites so I'm only talking about them now. My complete opinion is that these are great sight and I highly recommend them.

Exactly what I wanted

When I first received these sights, they looked fine. It wasn't until I had them installed (after the return by date, of course) that I realized there was a problem.When the sight was installed, the rifle shot high, on the order of 5 inches at 15 yards with the rear sight elevation screw completely backed out. When I measured the height of the front and rear sights, I found that with the elevation screw completely backed out, the rear sight was ~3.4mm higher from boresite (22.4mm) than the front sight (19.0mm). Based on these numbers, the rifle with these sights will shoot high until the target range is greater than 75 yards.This is way outside acceptable bounds as far as zeroing sights. If it wasn't past the return date, I'd mail these suckers back for a full refund. As it is, I need to hunt down a taller front sight for the rifle, or take a chance on a whole new set of sights from another manufacturer. Not sure which way I'll go yet...

I used this kit to replace the missing rear sight on a Rossi Circuit Judge. The rear sight base diameter is a little too large, but I used some high strength black silicone when mounting to make it more solid. The rear sight notch is really too small, so I used the round peep sight instead. I kept the original front sight on the rifle, which has a larger, easier to see red dot, so this works okay. In my opinion, the red and green dots are too small in diameter, and if it weren't for the round peep sight I probably would not have used this at all. On the positive side, the parts are made of metal, and are generally good in quality other than the above.

Besides my dumb butt having trouble with tiny screws it was perfect on my traditions buckstalker xt definitely put down paper so if you drop anything it's easy to find
