XS CLAMP ON SIGHT

Post by Dieselmachinegun101 »

So,

I ordered the XS front sight "clamp on style" and NOT the "fit over the front bead with epoxy glue style". Was going to cut off bead and pedestal off but now I'm thinking maybe I can just clamp it on the barrel over the existing pedestal.

Wondering why I don't just buy the "glue on style"? I guess I like the looks of the clamp on better to be honest haha

Anyone have experience with this?

I've been doing some research on these, and asked about using the epoxy-on with a ghost ring. Result:

The epoxy-on Big Dot is designed as a replacement for the bead; it's too short for a ghost ring. The clamp-on sight is taller, and aligns better with either of their ghost ring options.
