Default Front sight options for a 5" 460....

I want to replace the red ramp sight on my 460 5". It is a two-pinned sight, of course. I want a fiber optic type, similar to the Hiviz found on the 8.38" model. Can y'all share your thoughts and suggestions? Thanks.....

The sights are available in several different heights and both red or green.

LPA offers front and rear sight also with the fiber optic pieces

Thanks for the info Rggyh. Could you possibly post the link for the two-pinned sight you bought @ Midway? Also, I had a guy at S&W tell me 'bout these....... https://www.dawsonprecision.com/Cate...d+Front+Sights
