Hi
I have a IZH 46M, it came with a few options for setting up different sights.
As new it is set up so the front sight is just slightly smaller than the rear, meaning when it's centered there is very slim light bars on either side of the front sight.
I was comparing it to a .22 I have and those sights are basically in thirds. One light bar, the blade then another light bar all about the same width.
I'm sure alot is personal preference, but is there a suggested setup for an entry level shooter ?
Or maybe it doesn't matter.
Thanks, Tom

Try using the search engine. This has been discussed countless times. For example:

viewtopic.php?f=4&t=60396&p=290096

Precision sight ratios, front to rear. "X" is 1/2 foresight apparent width.
For Rapidfire, open "X" up to foresight apparent width.

Foresight 70% apparent width of front sight is minimum width

Foresight 100% apparent width of front sight about maximum

OK thanks guys
My rear sight is way narrower than the illustrations. I read on the provided link , you need a good hold to use a narrow rear sight.
I'm pretty sure if I open it up a little I'll do better.
Thanks, Tom
