I am likely going to grab a new production/standing setup for this season, and don't know who sells good front/rear sight combos anymore.
Is Ken Light still in business? Who else is out there?

If I remember correctly (debatable!), they don’t offer the Bomar type sight. I think they started offering the ribs with a Williams sight. Also, I don’t think he has a lot of what is advertised on the website. Kind of hit or miss.nutcase wrote: Thu Jan 28, 2021 5:28 pm here is ken light's designs:

Yep. But Brian Crawford engineering did all the Manufacturing for Ken Light later on. They used to come with Kensights, But they screwed up Ken Lights design and I think he switched to williams sights.i26963 wrote: Fri Jan 29, 2021 7:15 amIf I remember correctly (debatable!), they don’t offer the Bomar type sight.

Re: Front/rear sight combos
Chuck-
Is your standing gun going to be with peep sights or conventional blade & post? In 22, I shoot conventional open sights for P but peep sights for standing. In BB, a lot of people are shooting 300 blackout for standing with peeps, but production is a mix of open sights and peeps. Shooting peeps from a flop position takes a bit of practice, and (my 2 cents) a fairly flat belly
