    Before I was rich enough to afford a scope I used to squeeze a ‘blob’ of silver paper (foil) on the foresight when hunting in low light in bush.

    Was easier to pick up and didn’t noticeably affect the point of impact at the ranges was shooting (35-40 yards tops)

    And a dob of white paint each side of the rear sight ‘V’ helped too.
