Nice price .. if considering fiber optics .. this configeration saves the after market costs...
I am thinking of drilling and installing smaller rods in the back sight .. the link shows little .. how are yours configured , and are the back rods the same diameter as the front rod, or are the back rods fully enclosed ( not ends of course ) to make them less bright, so the front rod stands out? Same color front and back ?
Many posters on other forums have indicated they found just a front rod was best as their eye adjusted faster to the front sight and the back one would fall in line. The installing of fiber rods in the back was eye catching ..
Sounds like you found no problem with both sights having fiber rods ....
SFRC has been offering a commander model with a front fiber optic and a widened rear sight, at a similar price point for some time.
