Anyone make one? I've worn Google out this morning - I'm generally the web fucking master - just can't find one to save my life. Seem super common for metric guns - but very little support for the inch guns?

Haha - I guess with Gill in mind I could just take my current one down to Palo Verde and have em stick it around the reactor for a few weeks.. then go pick it up. Probably glow just fine :D

ok, info for making your own :laughing:
1) tritium can not be mailed "loose" in the US, so take your chances ordering loose vials.
2) find broken "Marathon, Luminox or UZI" watches
3) it is sometimes easier to adapt than build. AR ones are CHEAP and some free rotate (take the "middle" out and reinsert into a drilled out base)

I already have the rear sight I want - a nice Para peep with windage - I saw that DSA one - but of course it's metric. I probably should order up a AR front tritium and see what I can do with it. Just can't believe nobody builds one for the inch guns. Lame.

I like "my" rear :D its a HK G3 rear with custom base that I made on a FAL

the Meprolight front

The "center" free spins (so you can line up the tritium after you adjust for elevation) so it should be removable.

Better yet, I can order up the AR version - check the thread size - and drill/tap out the sight hole on the L1A1 for the AR front - assuming it's bigger. hrmmmmm

You want me to "look" at it?
Swap out the gas block for an open eared metric?
