HIVIZM-Series

Hiviz did a nice job with this bead. I’m not completely sure that this is the right front sight for me, but I am going to give it a solid trial run. I do think part of my “good days and bad days” issue is related to eye dominance, and this should help with that. It’s an inexpensive, well made, easy to install and use front bead. It could be a little brighter in dim light.

This sight is not for hunting in low light, it's for shooting clays. It's not super bright because you are supposed to gocus on the clay, not the bead. Its purpose is to help your brain focus on the eye that is in-line with the barrel since it is the only eye that will see the bead as you mount the shotgun. As you concentrate on the clay, the bead will be glowing in your peripheral vision just bright enough for your brain to choose the correct eye to pay attention to. Biggest benefit is when running mounting drills. HiViz makes a version of this sight for hunting that is much brighter in low light and very different in design. Haven't had issues with the bead coming out with target loads. If you're going to hunt with it, I suggest getting the version intended for hunting. For clays, this sight works beautifully.

The site is excellent and stays put without having to remove the factory site. You can change the color tubes to get the most out of your usage. It sits a little higher than factory sites to be expected. But you must only use it for a reference only and concentrate on the target.

Fit my older Winchester Ranger 120 great. 3/8" wide vent rib.

loose on benelli- rib - magnets hold it - but fly off after firing shotgun. buy one size smaller. I even put a spot of superglue to hold it but flew off anyway. Like the product but did not fit as advertised for Benelli

A great addition to a double barrel shotgun once you figure out the right size to order. I'm old, so it took me a couple times to get it right. If you're more careful than me, just measure the width of the rib on your shotgun and order the right size. The sight just drops right on and is held firmly in place by the strong little magnets. And you can REALLY see that fiber optic when you aim!!

Excellent fit for my 20 inch barrel Mossberg Maverick 88. It seems to remain in place after firing approximately 50 rounds, however, I am using this shotgun and sight primarily for home defense, and not for field use.

Personal opinion: This gimmick fiber optic site isn't worth it. I've been using a HIVIZ CompSight® Bead Replacement Front Sight (PM1002) on my shotgun for some time, and it works great (read on!). I recommend it. I'm an amateur, and improving my consistency is a goal. I read about this HIVIZ Magni-Comp Bead Replacement Front Sight (MGC2006) and the explanation that its "Magni-Optics feature forces you to focus with the proper eye down the axis of the shotgun bead for consistent alignment . That sounds wonderful. So I bought the sight and replaced my previous sight. The problems I experienced (leading me to go back to my previous HIVIZ sight) are that at a glance the on-axis dot isn't easily distinguishable, and by the time your eye senses and aligns with the "Magni-Optics" lens, you've taken your eye off the target and missed the shot. HIVIZ makes great products. This one fails on functionality.

the best sights had to replace due to compatibility check before purchase that it fits your unit to

remove when you are transporting your weapon. They will break quite easily.
