Recently got a 75B

the gun was dead on accurate, but I didn't care much for the sights

Wanted a fiber optic front sight and black rear sight, but it seemed like all the rear sights looked obnoxiously big in the pics I was seeing.

Probably should have shopped around a bit more but... didn't

Ended up ordering this FO front sight from CGW.

New sight is awesome/bright/fits great, but now my poi is 1.5-2" higher than my poa at 15 yds.

So, not sure what to do now...

A) scrap the FO front sight and put the original front sight back on

B) try to get a rear sight that will work with the FO front sight I've got

C)cut losses and order a new front/rear set


Any suggestions?

I would ask David at CJW which rear sight he recommends for the front you got and buy it :)

The easy answer is to adjust your hold on target, or to make sure your lining up the top of the front sight metal, and not the top of the bright fiber optic dot with the top of the rear sight. The FO draws your eye, but it also becomes primary focus instead of top of sight.
