CVA's Front Site???
 
I'm shooting the CVA eclipse. I love this gun. The guns sights are the fiber optic open sights. I keep breaking the front sight off. I've replaced it twice with the same front site. My question is: Is there a metal front site that I can replace it with? I like the fiber optics, but I can't rely on them.

Thanks
Chad

Tru Glow sells a metal replacement fiber optics that I am sure would fit it. I have a Staghorn and it is my one concern all the time. I like the gun but they could have put a little more into the sight. I figure I am going to mount a red dot on it anyway this summer so it will not really matter.

I had the same problem with my traditions deerhunter. They use what is called light optics and my front sight and rear sight broke and needed to be replaced. I picked up a Tru Glow fiber optic sight and have have minimal problem witb it. One time it slid out since the front sight is plastic but the rear is metal.

I would replace it with a Tru Glow.

I get so much more low light vision with fiberoptics, that I put up with the hassle. As said, Tru-glo are good. I think mine is called Hi Viz. It comes with replacable fiberoptic inserts so you can carry extras for when it breaks.
