Don't know the size but Ruger CS may be able to tell you..... or if ya have calipers you could measure.There are multiple vendors on Ebay for the stuff once you get the size thing settled Just went through this with a TC Omega muzzle loader.
Good Luck |

About 98% sure that is a Williams Gun Sight sight product if factory or you bought it from Optics Planet or a major vendor.

Quote HistoryQuoted: About 98% sure that is a Williams Gun Sight sight product if factory or you bought it from Optics Planet or a major vendor. It was factory but after looking it up, it looks different then what Williams offers. It had 3 posts to hold the fiber. Looks like the Williams just has 2. |

Most of the sight manufacturers sell spare rods. |

Just call Ruger. They'll send you a replacement - probably a whole sight. Had a similar issue with my redhawk. They sent a complete set of new sights.

If you can figure out the diameter, Amazon sells numerous different colors and lengths. Just cut’em to fit and install and you’re ready to go. Not expensive at all. Or as mentioned contact Ruger and they’ll likely send you what you need.

The fiber rods are a consumable part. Besides failing, they also dull. There is a couple common sizes. Measure the diameter of the hole with a drill bit and order replacement rod.

Quoted: It's worth it to have plenty of spares on hand. The fiber optic rods don't hold up long term if you actually use the gun. True. And if you get long rods you can cut them yourself. I cut them a tad bit longer than needed. Then melt the ends and smoosh them into a mushroom shape. Holds them secure for just a tad bit longer. |

I just fill the hole with a toothpick and black it out.
Gets rid of the gimmicky fiber optic and gives you a traditional looking front sight like God intended! |

Some of us with a little age need the extra contrast of a brighter dot. I’m very fond of the FO front sight on my Springer RO elite.
