Black sights are basically invisible to me.

Gotta do whatever works for you. The black sights on my EC9S were all but invisible to me.I carefully painted the serrations on the back of the front and rear sight with white jig head paint. While it was drying I went out to wallyworld found the painted up bimbo in cosmetics and had her find the cheapest chartreuse nail polish they had. When you put it on the white undercoat it sure stands out. Lot of time in frt pants pocket carry is rough.on it so recoat as needed..mb

I finally got the Colt 1911 22 out to the field last night.
Just after sundown. Blacked out rear, hi-vis green front sight. I like it a lot.
Reason for going out:
We had to make a quick run out to "the farm" and check zero on a couple rifles. Unfortunately, I am no longer shooting enough that I can grab any gun from the safe at any time and know it is sighted properly.
My son headed out with his step son today to help him shoot his first deer. Doe tag,
They came to find a proper rifle. The young man carried my Vanguard 243 with VX-2 4-12x40 AO today loaded with 95 gr SST.
Just spoke to my son. No joy. The deer did not cooperate.
People who choose to brew up their own storms bitch loudest about the rain.

Some good insight in here. I’m thinking about painting my S&W 65’s front sight. I’m thinking a bright orange would do well

So. . . what do color-blind (8%) individuals do to enhance their sights? Leave them black, white or some color outside of red/green. Just curious.
If I talk over you, I apologize. I'm afraid I will lose my train-of-thought.
