A TruGlo TGTG95500RR dovetail 3/8" front sight brings a straightforward, reliable aiming solution to any rifle equipped with a standard 3/8-inch dovetail mount. Built from CNC-machined steel, this black front sight features a red ramp design that stands out clearly against most backdrops—useful whether you're working up loads at the range, hunting in variable light, or simply preferring a traditional open-sight setup to complement or back up your optics.
The 0.500-inch height (measured from the dovetail base) positions the sight at a common elevation for general-purpose rifle shooting, making it a practical drop-in for many standard rifles. The fiber-optic element is a slim 0.060-inch diameter, which keeps the sight picture uncluttered while still gathering enough light for quick target acquisition. CNC machining ensures precise geometry and durability—no wobble, no surprises after a few rounds downrange.
If you're running open sights exclusively or backing up a scope with iron sights, this is a no-fuss choice that fits the most common dovetail mounting system in the rifle world. Whether you're a hunter who trusts good iron sights, a precision shooter refining your setup, or someone building or restocking a rifle, a solid front sight is foundational gear that simply needs to work.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this front sight fit my rifle?
If your rifle has a standard 3/8-inch dovetail slot on the barrel or receiver, this TruGlo front sight will fit. Check your rifle's documentation or measure the dovetail to confirm the 3/8-inch width before ordering.
What height is this sight, and will it co-witness with my scope?
The sight measures 0.500 inches from the bottom of the dovetail. This height is designed for standard open-sight use. Whether it will sit at the right plane for backup to a scope depends on your specific scope mount height and rail setup—we recommend checking your scope's eye relief and mount specifications.
What is the fiber-optic element, and how bright is it?
The red ramp includes a 0.060-inch diameter fiber-optic element that gathers ambient light to enhance visibility in the field. Brightness depends on available light conditions; fiber-optic sights are generally brighter and faster to acquire in daylight than traditional metal sights, but do not require batteries.
Is this sight compatible with iron sight rear sights?
This is a front sight only. It will pair with any standard rifle rear sight that matches your dovetail configuration. Compatibility with any specific rear sight depends on your rifle's platform and rail design.
