Excellent description of how this is done. I lost my front sight tube this morning while turkey hunting and wasn't sure how to replace it. Thank you very much most informative.
I’m glad I came across this video. Easier than I thought.
7 year old video, still helpful today :)
Thank you. That was clear and concise and now my front sight is clear and concise. The most important information you gave is let the heat build instead of getting too close. My Novak front sight had a bubble in the middle since I bought them and they sent me six rods free of charge. Another thing you might mention is when you clean your pistol take extra care in cleaning the fiber rod. You might fail to notice the absence of light after all the powder build up.
+shooterqqqq thanks for watching. For me and my eyes I still prefer red. I haven't missed green yet. As far as using a lighter near the reloading bench I can't cover all lapses of common sense :-)
This helped me change mine for the first time I appreciate you making this kind of content 😊
It took me no less then 2 minutes to complete , thank you.
Very helpful. Thank you.
worked to perfection, thank you !
Nice lesson. Thank you.
This was very helpful!

Simple install!
Thanks I just learned something new now to apply it 😊
thank you i need to replace the front sight on my mussel loader guy a gun store fliped it around and still works but some time in near future ill have to change it now just need to figer out the size
Great video man. trial and error for me the first time, I would hold lighter too close and it would leave the optic super cloudy.
You make it look easy
Nice...Quick...in the point...
Perfect
Thanks!
nice video...
good video, thank you brother.
Thanks for watching
Perfect
The one that came in my gun I just got was bad I changed it to red it looks better thanks
Subscribed. Great video and great sense of humor :D
+John Keeler thank you and welcome to the channel!
Thank you Learning Firearms . I followed your video today to change out the fiber optic sight from red to green on my new Springfield XDS!
Great video. Would you happen to know the size fiber you used?
Obrigado 👍🏻
Hell yeah!
Kensight makes it harder. They say heat and make the bulb then pull it back through the channel which makes a small dot but falls out
thanks so much !!!!! just what i needed because i couldn't see crap with the green rods
+richard spight thanks for watching
You might miss having the green rods if you're shooting bird clays on a stick.
Just what i was looking for.Red vs green replacement rod. Looks like red it is. Thanks.
Great video, can i know what size of optic rod you use?
So I'm replacing the sight on my judge and the little rod doesnt go all the way through the front part of the sight. The front part is capped of, so do I glue the front part of the rod
Who makes an inexpensive front sight for my Ruger SR9c so that I can install a fiber optic?
How do you find out the diameter of your front fiber optic sight to replace it? I have the Walther PPQ and I can't find that information anywhere.
Is it available on Amazon to order. I want to make fiber sight for air rifles.
I wish they had a system where you didnt have to melt it because a flush cut rod works way better.
what size diameter fiber rod do you use?
Where do you get the fiber opyic rods?
What size of fiber optic in front sight of 45caliber
Canik elite combat has a .040 or .060 size rod? I cant find my micrometer 😡
Does anyone make optic height sights like this for the M&P M2 9mm?
Eyes can't seem to make out that front iron sight like I used too, but still want to co-witness with a Holosun.

Before adding heat my rod was super bright and collecting a lot of light. After the heat, once the install was complete I noticed the rod was not as bright and not gathering passing much light. Is this typical or did I do something wrong?
+LilD12683 could be too much heat. Slow and steady is better
I have the same results .. about half as bright as it was before install, melting those ends has to have something to do with it
DONT use nail clippers lol. Nail clippers tend to have a curvature anyways bc it’s for your NAILS. Use something more precise like a razor blade.
Looks just like weed trimmer line.
Saya tidak percaya ia boleh menjadi sebaik ini
Oh, you might mention NOT using the cigarette lighter on your reloading bench.
shooterqqqq I think they kind of assume that firearm owners owning reloading equipment aren’t that fucking stupid.
nail clippers did NOT work. thanks!? lmao
Probably operator error
