So Oregon has pretty strict rules when it comes to muzz hunting. I'm trying to find some regular white sights for my dads tc black diamond I plan on using for my special draw hunt in October. It has fiber optic ones now which are a no no. I haven't had any luck so far finding some non lit plain ol sights for this thing. Any ideas?
Thanks

I thought about something like that but who knows how picky they are if I got checked. I really thought it would be easy to find plain f&r sights. I'll keep checkin eBay for a take off set from someone who upgraded to fiber optic ones.

Try calling T/C.

William's looks like they have a normal set of iron sights. But you have to call them with all your info.

Oregon is allowing fiber optics this year. No need to change those sights. :IBCOOL:
