Front sight broken

[PNWCOONASS]

Yesterday while hunting, I leaned my bighorn on a tree.  I thought it was firmly placed on there but somehow it slipped off feel on a rock and cracked half of the green truglo stick/rod.  Does anyone know if you can just replace that part of do you have to replace the whole sight itself?

I also broke my front sight this year.  I am paying the 20 bucks and getting a new set rather  than hassle with phone calls and the postal service.   It also gives me another excuse to go out and shoot again this year

You can use the some fiberoptic material they use on bows. Find the material that is the largest in diameter. To install cut the the right length then use a match or lighter to cause the material to slightly melt and expand. Once that is done get some supper glue or something that dries clear to hold it a little better. The best part is it only cast about $10 and you get 4-5 different colors.

Well I contacted Tru-glow via email from their website asking how to replace or buy a replacement fiber optic rod.  Low and behold when I checked the mail on saturday there were 5 replacement rod in a package free of charge.   So I did end up ordering a new front sight from Knight, so I think I'll replace the broken stuff and keep it as a spare.

I went out on a limb and check into my durabright sights, and low-and-behold they were guaranteed for life. So I called and 20 secs later they sent me a new set no questions asked.  Then I went to the sporting goods store, purchased the multi-pack set of true-glow fiber optics and prestoe now I have a back up set ready to role.
