I still have the open sites that came with my colt ar. I was wondering  if there is more accurate open sites available?

If you really have a problem with your iron sights, they are easily replaced - are you sure that is the "accuracy" problem?

Or are you looking for a different sighting mechanism all together??  How about taking the front sight post and filing a notch like this
\/ in it ; or cut it at a 45 like this /\.  Might Help?? Something to give you a point versus the block at the end.  

So that your sight picture ends up looking like this. ( . )  or (/\) or (\/) instead of (||) . Just an idea.  The Inverted V may give you the most precision and obliterate less of your target. Trying to do that to something that small may require a precision filer and a fly tieing magnifying glass.

At first I thought you were talking about ar15.com, versus some other, friendlier more open "site".  But anyway, I only have a couple open "sites" on my rifle, one where the magazine goes, one where shells come out and one where da bullets come out.

The AR15 has excellent sights for a military-style rifle.  Where do you find them lacking?
