I just ordered a LCP Max front sight for my BG 2.0. I’ll report back with results and pics, won’t leave you interested die hard folks hanging!

LCP Max front sight didn’t work on BG 2.0 - too narrow in dovetail, not compatible in my case.

Thank you for reporting back

A photo please

LCP Max front sight didn’t work on BG 2.0 - too narrow in dovetail, not compatible in my case.

Can you please show, via photo, how much wider it is as I'd like to try taking the time to carefully make it fit if you're up for parting with the offending front sight.

Thanks in advance.

Yes, photos of sight changes are welcome.

Tried installing a BG set of sights on my BG2.0 and the problem on the front sight isn't the front to back width, but the depth of the dovetail. It's much deeper on the BG2.0 so the sight needs a thicker insert (see photo). The aftermarket sights are much easier to see though and as soon as a proper set is available, I'll order some.

LCP Max front sight too small, nothing to grab onto, no resistance.

Handled the 2.0, compared it to my BG380 and LCP Max, and laughed. Not changing.

I get it, why drive a Beamer when a Honda will do.

Yeah, turns out I’m an idiot and was chasing the sights and complicating things. Centered both up and nudged the front sight towards the POI, and now it’s dead nuts accurate at 7 yards. Maybe a 2” group from a rest. So, not only is it accurate, but we have options as far as sights go! Sorry for leading anyone astray with regards to the grouping, but you live and you learn.

Just bought my BG 2.0 and my front sight seems centered, but I am also shooting left a few inches at 7.5 yards.

How do you adjust the front and/or rear sights on the BG 2.o?

Sights for Lcp max no good for BG2.0

The front sight would not work on mine ether but the rear fit perfect.

As I posted before, I changed out both sights with two sight sets. The rear is from a Tru-Glo set made for the original Bodyguard/LCP Max and the front is from a Tru-Glo set made for the EZ9. The front one does not flop around but is not tight. Permatex thread locker orange works beautifully to hold it and you would need a punch or sight pusher to move it. I've got over a thousand rounds through it and zero movement.
