Diopter sights are simply sights in which the shooter aligns two concentric circles in order to aim the weapon.
There are a number of companies such as Troy which make diopter front sights to go with a standard rear sight to make it a diopter system. If you're only interested in an HK/Sig style rear drum then that is the route you'll have to take. |

The least expensive route is to go diopter front with a standard rear sight. |
