Has anyone released the stock red fiber optic in the Supernova or Nova. Whenever I step outside at dusk to test it out I notice that it's pretty terrible at gathering light.
If I replace it with another fiber optic bead will should I still use the mid bead? Will it throw my POI off?
I have the same gun and my bead is kinda dark also. The Supernova I had before it had a nice bright sight, so I guess there not all like that. Scopes/Red dots weren't working out for me with this gun, so I think I'll go with adjustable sights. But if my initial POA/POI is good to go then I'll just leave it alone.
I thought about getting a front abs rear sight with adjustability so if it was off I could adjust but if I just got a front sight was curious if it could hurt more than help.
I guess you can try one of those fiber optic "light pipe" front sights that come with pipes of a different height. You can find which height works for you. Now if your windage is off, well I think you'd have to go to plan B.
I replaced the stock bead on my SBE II with this one. WOW was all i could say.
