My GP100 is a great shooter, with a surprisingly nice trigger. Hope your runs and shoots well -- Enjoy!
I snagged your JPG and did it in red. Like it even better that way!Like this? A few secs with an image editor on a PC.
I know I would. I put one on my Ruger MkIV and do love it... My daughter who goes shooting with me hates it and since the GP100 is more a stay at home for when unwanted guests come to dinner and not a primary target shooting pistol, I think I will start with the red front sight and see where it takes me. I do love my Holosun 507C ( I think that is the model number ) and will shoot a hundred rounds through it at the range about once a week or two. Love the inexpensive .22s. I plan on shooting the 357 only enough to be competent with it. Since my history is with revolvers going back to the mid 1960's, I won't be going through a lot of rounds with it compared to the .22s. Its because of that history I chose the 6 round cylinder as they count off without error. If I had bought the 7 round gun, it would either leave me with a spare round in the 357 or possibly giving my .22 revolvers an extra squeeze.
Black on black for sights is a common type. Sadly,, as we age,, our eyes find that it may not be the easiest to see or adjust to. I used to enjoy black on black iron sights,, but in recent years,, a good fiber optic seems to really give me a good contrast. Everybody's eyes are a little different.
I bought a 6 pack of fluorescent UV setting nail polish to paint black gun sights. I have also used it on my fishing bow marked for distances like a bow "rainbow sight" because the trajectory of a fishing arrow is like a lead anchorI snagged your JPG and did it in red. Like it even better that way!
This is the one you bought on Amazon? I bet Ruger had nothing to do with it.Just received my Ruger accessory - a front sight with a red plastic inset on a black metal base. Poorly made, sad to say. Red plastic flashing all over the place. It came out of a machine and was thrown into some packaging. A razor trimmed the excess but the remaining plastic surfaces of the plastic are rough. Not "made with pride". The other thing is that it is a weird color of red. Not a high visibility red, but a darker red with maybe a bit of orange.
I will probably keep it but wonder what would cause some product manager or Ruger think this is good for the company.View attachment 45074
