HW Front TruGlo Fiber Optic Sight, Fits Select HW Rifles

Easy installation and fit on my HW rifles. The bright red dot makes plinking and casual shooting much easier and enjoyable. For precise target shooting, however, the black stock sights are preferable since they offer a smaller front sight profile. I would not buy this replacement if my interests were primarily in punching paper targets.

The hooded insert is well made but overpriced. Many air arms are sold with plastic insert front sights as standard equipment. The HW fiber optic offers typical performance. The partial hood is unlikely to provide any extra durability. It's hard to justify an expensive sight replacement costing 15% the cost of a new HW (R7) springer. The HW TruGlo sight should ideally retail for $25--$30.

For shooting fun, disregard the high price and treat yourself to this replacement. Its bright red dot really pops bright and makes tin cans and plinking targets easy to hit.

bright compared to the factory sight. can now shoot an r9 into late dusk or even night (with a "headlamp"). available and it does help. fit well. easy to install.

a bit pricy when i don't get a thinner fiber optic or color option, 'dot" is fat. only comes in red. the side screw is flat drive. would like a torx or allen. none of which are deal breakers for me.

went right on an r9 in .177. taking soup cans @40 yards standing in low light/ dark. NOT a small dot, definitely NOT for printing paper! use loctite. give it a squeeze with a non-marring c-clamp before tightening. I like mine, get one...

Fiber optic makes a lot of sense for an outdoor shooter with older eyes!

Overpriced by double at least. Fiber is quite fat and obscures target but OK for plinking... just not fine target work. Cheap Aluminum easy to wreck the dovetails so install slow and careful. It's a mediocre sight at best but we're stuck with it.
