Pros

  • Extra long fiber optic rod creates a bright, easy-to-see sight picture.
  • Open center blade allows plenty of light for a clear red dot.
  • Compatible with ghost ring, v-notch, and conventional sights.
  • Includes a spare optic rod for added convenience.
  • Steel construction with black matte finish for a subdued look.

Considerations & Trade-offs

  • The .150" sight size and Kimber/Novak 65Adeg x .330" x .075" dovetail specification mean fitment is specific, so compatibility should be verified before purchase.
  • The open-center blade is designed to admit more light, which can make the sight picture brighter but also less enclosed than a fully closed front sight.
  • The sight is described as steel with a black matte finish, so the appearance is subdued rather than highly visible on its own.
  • An extra long fiber optic rod is included, but the fiber optic element is still a replaceable component that may need attention over time.
