Trouble with BW sights

[dk]

A short time back I had a post asking opinions on the BW or Sheriff .I could not make up my mind so I got both.I have had the BW for about a week .The Sheriff I am still  waiting  on.Any way here was my problem! After shooting the Widow I was having some problems with finding the front sight in a quick presentation.I went to walmart and found some stuff called puffy paint you can get it in neon orange or neon yellow it is a fabric type paint and is moisture resistant .It takes about  4 hours to dry  but once it dries this stuff is pretty tuff.I put a little bit on the front sight and  now the front sight  jumps right up there were I can see it.Some would say take it to a gunsmith and that's ok however I spent 97 cents on this stuff and it worked for me.BETTER DEAL FOR ME ! I have cleaned my Widow twice after applying the paint. Gun oil doesnt seem to effect it.If anybody had the problem I did it might help.Maybe not!But has worked for me.

2 part epoxy model paint works well, too.

I hear good things about using the CVang grips or the NAA factory folding grips as far as helping out with sight alignment on a quick presentation.

YMMV, of course. Happy shooting!

I bought model airplane paint in orange-red and white to highlight my sights on my Ruger Mk2.

I like the way you think: Having a hard time deciding, buy both!!

The gunsmith thing is ok, but what happens if you don't like the color you picked? It is not gonna be cheap to change it. After using different colors of paint, nail polish, etc, then would be the time to consider having a pro make your color choice a little more permanent. That is, if you have had problems with your paint. I would not have thought to try fabric paint. Thanks for bringing it up.
