HiViz Fiber Optic Sights
« on: April 01, 2013, 08:57:29 PM »
Do you have any thoughts about having HiViz fiber optic sights (red/front; green rear) installed on CZ 75B full size? If negative, any better suggestions? Thanks...

JMO: 1.  Front sight, front sight, front sight!  This is the mantra for speed and accuracy for many action shooters.
Black rear similar to a .22 target pistol + preferred color FO front for speed.   The front FO draws your eyes to it without distractions from another set of FO at the rear.
To each his own though.  Some don't find this to be true.

I have the HiViz green front sight on my P-07 and I scraped off the white U on the rear sight. So now I have a plain black rear and green FO front.  I love it.

I have the red FO on the front, and the standard rear sight. So far, so good..
May I assume you're not here to inquire about the alcohol or the tobacco?

I have CDO. It's actually OCD but I put them in order like they should be!

FO front - black rear site on mine.
I love it.

Mine is a CZ custom style open top not a covered HI-viz style, I do not know if there is a difference in intensity or durability. It seems to be easy to change the tube out on the open style. I would bet either is really good I have been tempted to try a hi-viz on one of my 82's.
