I really prefer the Williams FP peep - 1/4 min clicks. Works just like a scope...

Might look through this thread...

You can find them a bit cheaper on the net at different places but the shipping runs the price up above buying diectly from Williams.

Call Williams and ask for extension #228 - that will get you to Steve, let him know what you are after and he can help you out.

Post by: rosies or bust on December 21, 2012, 02:32:08 PM: Thanks for the info there usmc. Been waiting to buy this sight for quite a while. Everywhere else is $70 or more. I have Sabotloader to thank for pointing me (and others I assume) in a new direction. I use the identical front sight setup, and it works slick. Just make sure to put some Loctite on that hood! By the way, thanks for your service usmc.

Post by: Phishead on December 29, 2012, 02:32:40 PM: did you end up changing out your sight on the bighorn? how's it working? do you have any part numbers on the front sight ramp, beed and hood? you guys have convinced me to change out the factory sight with the setup on the above link. However all the info there is for the Disc Extreme and not the Bighorn. I just want to make sure i'm buying the right stuff. thanks
