Hi Guys,

Need help with finding an orange front sight insert for a S&W revolver.Even a new front sight will do. Searched the net buy couldnt find the right one. Picture is posted below.

I already posed it on the firingline.com and most people ask me to do it with nail polish. Can you believe it?

I found this video. Dont know if I should give it a try.

Yes; nail polish, marker pens, etc. are fairly common daily products that shooters use for this and even for the safety marks on the ppk type safeties.

Plus you also get additional specialised products to mark the sight. Changing the front sight would be overkill I think, unless you're changing them for the night sights.

Hi
I vote for cyclostyle correction fluid
it used to be luminous pink when I used it
changing sights possible but Id ruther not ever fiddle with the originality of any weapon
