Default fiber optic sights

I shoot a Browning BPS 3" mag. w/mossy oak break up camo. I'm thinking about getting a fiber optic sight installed. There are several to choose from. I would like one that will stay where I set it, also I do not want it to slip or scratch my gun. Any suggetions??

Wormy welcome to the forum!I would suggest TruGlo's magnum Gobble Dot system.I've had this system on my gun for a few years now and have had great results with it.Its been through the snow,rain,and mud and has never come loose,and thats also taking in muzzle blast too!The sight snaps onto your vent rib to an adhesive tape,no screws or drilling needs to be done.I really like the front and rear sight system,the only modification I made is I moved the rear sight further down my barrel towards my muzzle to help in keeping my head down on my gun and cheek on stock!Its about a 25.00 system and is well worth the price.Check it out at basspro.com.....Hope it helps Bob!

I like the William's Fire sights. They are made of all metal (no plastic) and fasten securley to your rib via four screws per sight and two metal clamps. Once on they are very snug and look great. The rear sight can be adjusted both for windage and elevation since the sights are dovetailed onto the base. I also like that the rear sights has the fiber optics "inbeded" into the metal to help protect this fragile part, seems to still gather plenty of light.

I really like my tru glo gobble stopper, with the slide lock system. They stay put, are adjustable for windage and are low profile. Being low profile really helps from them catching on stuff going through the woods. It's also easier to use them without having to lift you head abit off the stock.

I vote for the williams for the reasons TScottW stated they can be a bit of a pain to get on right but not to bad. and they have varying slots for the different widths of ribs
