[QUOTE="uncle money bags, post: 2536453, member: 8377"] Blackening the front sight helps it stand out more on a lighter target. The point about the front sight for a standard ar subtends about 6 inches at 100 yards is correct. There are front sight posts available from about .030-.080 which can be used though. However, the width of the front sight is not necessarily indicative of accuracy. Centering that front sight at the 6 o'clock position on a round black bullseye allows you to fine tune the placement of the sight. The same is true of red dot sights. Use the 12o'clock tip of the red dot as your aiming reference, not the whole dot, for accuracy work. [/QUOTE]
