I see Ruger has a 5.5 inch 44 mag redhawk Talo model that features a fiber optic front sight instead of the ramp with red insert. I have not owned a pistol with a fiber optic front sight and wondered if it was a durable choice and if it was a significant improvement over the ramped front sight model?
There's a company that offers the best of both worlds, i.e., combination tritium and fiber optic. Can't remember the manufacturer, but someone will likely chime in with it. Clearly, if there's any significant ambient light, the fiber optic front sight is awesome, far better than any other option. I've tried them, but as yet haven't taken the plunge. Plan to, though.
