Xs Sights Ring Sightxs Low Weaver Backup Ghost
The XS Sights Low Weaver Backup Ghost Ring sight is a fast, dependable open sight designed as insurance against scope failure in the field. Whether you're hunting with a scoped rifle and want a failsafe, running an inline muzzleloader in no-scope hunting zones, or developing loads while switching between optics, this ghost ring sight mounts to any standard Weaver-style base and deploys in seconds when you need it most.
Built around XS Sights' proven ghost ring design, this backup sight gives you a large, unobstructed sight picture for rapid target acquisition in variable light. The sight ships with two interchangeable apertures—one .230" inside diameter for bright conditions and one .191" for low light—so you can dial in the setup that works best for your hunting environment. Both windage and elevation are fully adjustable, letting you dial in precise zero once mounted.
The Low Weaver variant positions the sight lower on the gun, maintaining a cheek weld consistent with scoped shooting. It's the practical choice for hunters who run a scope as their primary optic but refuse to be caught without backup iron sights. Fast installation, no gunsmithing required, and the peace of mind that comes from knowing you've got a second sighting system ready to go.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this work on my rifle with a Weaver base?
Yes. The XS Sights Low Weaver Backup Ghost Ring mounts to any standard Weaver-style base and installs in seconds without tools or gunsmithing.
Can I use this sight on an inline muzzleloader?
Yes. This sight is well-suited for inline muzzleloaders, especially in hunting areas where scopes are prohibited. It gives you a fast, reliable sighting system for those hunts.
What aperture should I use?
The .230" aperture is designed for bright conditions, while the .191" aperture is better for low-light hunting. The sight ships with both, so you can switch them based on the lighting where you're hunting.
