Product Description
HiViz handgun sights have been redesigned. With an all-new square profile, sight picture acquisition time is reduced. Serrations on the rear of the sight base combine with a slightly recessed LitePipe to eliminate the "halo effect" common to many sights and increase the durability of the toughest LitePipes available. This new design is also more holster friendly.
- Ruger GP100 revolver front sight
- Interchangeable LitePipes in red and green
- Carrying case for LitePipes
- Fits all GP100 model revolvers with adjustable rear sight
- HiViz recommends gunsmith installation for all dovetail sights. Due to manufacturing tolerances, some firearms may require additional fitting.

HiViz Ruger GP100 Handgun Sight Reviews
42 of 42 people found the following review helpful: bright sight, poor instructions, By This review is from: HiViz Ruger GP100 Handgun Sight (Sports) I love my Ruger GP100 revolver, but the stock front sight is terrible. It is a uniform dark color that is hard to see except in bright light. I purchased the Hi Viz fiber optic front sight to replace it. Instructions for installing the sight are printed on the cardboard back of the package it comes in. Installation is very easy: use a punch to press in on the recessed button just above the muzzle of your Ruger revolver (obviously, for safety reasons, make sure your gun is completely empty of bullets first). While pressing in the button you simply lift the stock sight up and out from the back forward. The Hi Viz sight installs the same way in reverse. Press the button on your gun in and while doing so place the Hi Viz site on the gun by putting the back end in first and then lowering the front into place. Then release the front button on your gun to lock it in place. In bright light the Hi Viz sight seems to light up like a beacon. It's very easy to...

As both a gunsmith and firearms instructor I must admit that the HiViz front sight insert makes a world of difference. The fiber optic lights up like search beacon and your eyes are automatically drawn exactly where they should be; to the front sight! You pick up the sights quicker, you pick up the target quicker, and consequently your rounds are down range faster and more accurately, as long as you do your part behind the gun. Al the light bars work well, but I chose the red fiber optic on mine. Installation was under 10 seconds and unless you use your gun as substitute for a hammer they should last various lifetimes. They work, they're easy to install, and they are inexpensive; What's not to like? 19 of 19 people found the following review helpful: A big improvement., Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: HiViz Ruger GP100 Handgun Sight (Sports) My GP100 came with a plain black serrated ramp front sight. I had trouble ascertaining my front sight quickly. I shopped for night sights, but no-one makes affordable ones for this model. I settled on this fiber optic. Installation was a piece of cake. It was as close to drop-in as I could want. It's worth noting that you actually only get three colors of tubes: OPAQUE white (why?), red, and green. You get a couple spares of the reds and greens. I can now locate my front sight very quickly in all but the darkest lighting conditions. This is an excellent alternative to some of the overpriced tritium units. |
