Front sight colored
Can the front sight of a 50 meter free pistol be colored. Such as maybe green. I was unable to find it in the rule book. I do not know if I want to but would like to know if it is possible. Maybe fiber optic even. This rule does not say no. 8.4.2.3. Has anybody run into this. Thanks
can you - yes
would you - why?
This topic has been thrashed around in the past - you could use the search function to seek out previous threads.
Many people have tried various colours, but all seem to come back to black.
All ISSF 10, 25 and 50m firing points are covered. For non-ISSF use where you might not be shootiing from a shaded firing point, there could be an 'advantage', but the colour would depend on the individual shooter's preference.

An old guy in a competing club has been doing this for years.
He's made a frontsight from transparent red plastic.
It almost seems to glow in the dark......
I've felt the temptation to copy this for a long time :-)
My present sight is homemade from black plastic.
So it's just a matter of finding a piece of suitable material.
Maybe a broken tail light from a car would be suitable?
