Thread: Glow sights / paint

Not even sure if this is what you call them, what have people used to improve shooting in low light/dark shadows with open sights

This is for my 30-30, bail gun, bush gun

Cheers

No pic showing for me. I know a guy who deer huts with a .22magnum. Painted the front sight yelow said it helps alot.

there is no pic, just my magic way with words haha

Have 30-30, cant see jack shit in low light, how can i improve ?

That more english for ya

Might try some paint on front bead toby, did see some glow paint somewhere, everything ive found so far is for pistols

Oh right. Nah makes sense when I re-read it. Try either bright paint like fluro yellow.or yeah the glow paint. I dont think white or red are that great but could be alright. I know he red front sight on the slug gun is crap. The truglo ones. But the rear sight is a bright green and stans out might be ok as well.

Legend Toby, thats what i was after ( Truglo )

Tritium

Twink on the front site and a white arrow under the notch on the back sight.

Found the truglo set for lever actions, dont see any over here at the moment but they have been on TM at times, going to try the twink first cheers guys

the true glow ones if they are similar to the shotguns ones may not be suitable for bush use as they are abit week
twink is easy, you could just tie a white handkerchief round the barrels like the vietcongs did for night ambushes

Nice one Barefoot, i will do that to my 'bush/roar gun' a cut down SMLE 303......SWEET!

Shops that sell plastic model aircraft etc usually sell dayglow type enamel paints , so do shops that sell fly tying equipment , also dayglow nail polish is available , but some only works in uv light so check it out first
