is there a reason I shouldn't put paint on iron sights?
I've been wondering this same thing. Trying to shoot at dark targets with irons is rough.

Is there a reason you need to? Nothing bad about it, if you do a nice job, since sights come with tritium all the time.

It'll flake off?
You'd be better off setting up a flashlight next to your target, or else getting real night sights

I find white sights a lot easier to use than black iron sights, especially since most targets I aim at are fairly dark.

hold on mr deer, hold on mr bad guy, let me put this flashlight next to you before I shoot at you.

I used a swipe of pic related to paint the front sight on the ole beat up hipower. Works great. Way easier to acquire the sights when you present now

Some people have hard time seeing black sight on black target

why would it flake off? if it does, take another 2 seconds and apply more

not a good picture
but i put some glow in the dark stuff on some of my sights
overall im pretty happy with them
>>28383800
nope.
you can try it with white-out first it will flake right off if you don't like it
it feels gritty and i need to put some clear nail polish over it to help protect it
they stay way brighter than the tritium in my glock or kimber for about 5-10 minutes
still good after for about 20
then they are pretty much done
but they only take like 5 seconds to charge with a bright flashlight and its seriously night and day difference when i clear my house at night now

what exactly is it?
>>28384275
I used cotton swabs and cut a glowstick in half and applied it really carefully
>>28383800
I cerakoted a front site to an AK I have. Works amazing my grouping improved.
>>28384275
i got the medium sized vial of the brightest shit they had, which is plenty to do many more of my guns

coolio. thanks. i was thinking of doing it to a couple of my saturday night specials for shits n gigs.

How would you compare it to just plain white in daylight? I got some Tru-dots for my PPS and they are MUCH worse than the white painted stock sights unless it's pitch black. I'll probably give this a try. Seems like a cool thing to have around anyway.
