Shotgun Sight help
« on: December 12, 2025, 03:26:19 PM »
Took out my brand new Weatherby Element duck hunting on Saturday and noticed that my fiber optic pipe tube is gone. Does anyone know which one fits this sight? Too many options on the internet from Hiviz, truglo, amazon. Pics attached

I would call Weatherby Customer Service (307) 675-7840. M-F, 8am-5pm MT to get OEM. Most likely you will need to replace the entire sight assembly with either Hiviz or Truglo, both should have the correct mounting hardware (screw size).

Measure the hole and just order that size tube in the color of your choice. 

Or just poke a matchstick in the hole and paint it.

That works as well, I've done the match trick in the middle of a big shoot.

You can buy a fiber optic that is magnetic that will slide onto your rib of the shotgun
