Hi folks

I would like to change out a couple of front sights on my rifles & need those easier to see fire-sights. My eyes are not what they used to be. Maybe age has a bit to do with this, I'm not sure!;) I do use them on my Rem-870 & a Ruger 77-357 & I really like them....

My local gun shops have none & say their distributors have nothing. Do any of you know who might have stock on these?

Thanks for any info you may have & any help with this!
Merry Christmas everybody!:cool:

When I talked to Williams they told me I could order direct from them and also suggested Western Gun Parts. I had found a front ramp on clearance at at Cabelas.ca and then ended up ordering a Fire Sight blade and a hood for it with a Guide rear sight block and Fire Sight ghost ring from from Brownells.

This was for a BSA CF2 carbine (.243Win) and they haven't fallen apart. The CF2s came with iron sights from the factory (a Williams Guide rear sight was original equipment) but I got my CF2 used, without them. Although I like having iron sights even if I have a scope I haven't yet added them to a rifle that came from the factory without them, but if I do I'll start by checking if there are Williams Fire Sights to fit.

I ordered directly from Williams now a couple of times without issues. I really like their sights on my MKIII pistol
 
Leaving rear sight works ok with a fiber optic on the front. I set up a Rem 1917 like this and it was a remarkable difference and improvement from the old front iron sight. Also, on a M-94 I installed a Williams Peep on the rear and a fiber optic on the front sight. I also changed the color from Red to Green on the Front on the M-94 and I found it held a bit more light at dusk. Both of these set-us work well for what they are intended for.
