Hey everyone, I'm a proud new owner of a CZ-82. Haven't shot it yet but I already love it. One thing I noticed was that the sights could really benefit from some paint. What is a good, versatile color combo for the front and rear sights? I want to be able to find the front sight quickly, and do so in low light conditions.

I was thinking either white dots in the rear with a red front blade, or light green rear dots with a flourescent orange front sight. I know that regular model paint will work for this, but after looking around I am considering buying a kit from Brightsights.com that has glow in the dark paint.

Does anyone have any experience with this glow in the dark paint? I'm kind of skeptical about it, how well does it glow?

Any help would be great!
