Tried red. Couldn't see it consistently.

White. It was invisible on white targets.

Put a bright orange model paint on the top half of the front sight, over the white. It is fair, but still not as good as the fiber optic sight on the 4.2" 357. Big Dot looks really nice. Thanks for the pic's DanO Those pictures are exactly what I needed to see to make up my mind. The Big Dot looks like it may be better than the fiber optic front sight. For sure in low light or the dark.

What size drill do you need to drill the new sight, Mahoo?
