Lee Enfield mk3 sight question

[GDavies]

Hey guys I just picked up a lee enfield mk3 sporter at the kamloops gun show today and I wanted to know if theres anything you guys can suggest to make the front post sight stand out more. I was just finding it hard to line up targets because its pure black. Is there some kind of gun paint you can use for that or a after market front sight that you can buy ? Its just realy small and seems way harder to see compared to my SKS or any other iron sights iv shot.

Thx for your help
Greg

You could try a dab of white paint or whiteout on the front sight....

Got a girl friend or wife? if so, red, yellow and orange nail polish is your answer. If your living in bachelor luxury, the any type of high visibility paint will work. A white paint pen will work and are usually readily available at hardware stores.
