The HIVIZ Ruger LCR Front Sight features a unique square-profile Litepipe for enhanced sight visibility, a pre-drilled steel base for easier installation, and is precision-made in the USA. Designed exclusively for Ruger LCR and LCRx revolvers in .38, .357, and 9mm calibers, this durable sight upgrades your handgun’s aiming capabilities with a clear, bright green dot that stands out in any lighting condition. Installation is recommended to be performed by a gunsmith to ensure a perfect fit due to manufacturing tolerances.

## Description

Hi Viz is very excited to offer a front sight for the new Ruger LCR with a steel base and our exclusive clear overmold design making it durable enough for the most extreme use. This sight has two unique features: the Litepipe has a square profile instead of round and the base is pre-drilled for the retaining pin allowing for easier installation

Review: Okay, so I love having this, but... - 5 stars for loving this on my gun. BUT this thing is VERY DIFFICULT to get on your gun. If I was to do it over again, I'd take it to a gun shop and pay them to put it on. Getting the old roll pin out was not difficult. I used a 1/16" punch. You will need to use a lot of padding and put the gun in a vice. Putting in the new roll pin was very tedious and NOT fun. I used the 1/16" punch, a small hobby hammer and a variety of other tools and objects to get the new one in. Even then, the end of the roll pin ended up frayed slightly and a little (not a lot) deformed. Ugh. Just using the 1/16" punch to hammer it in did not work. The punch damages the pin and slips off too easily. To get the last third of it in, I had to use pliers and squeeze it in trying not to hurt the gun. The pin went in but the very edges of it ended up slightly frayed and flush against the new sight. Not bad, no one will notice, it's in 99% of the way and will not budge, but it bothers me. The pin really should be slightly smaller and a better fit. Took me around an hour. Awesome sight though. It works great and I would recommend it. Maybe just hire someone to put it in.
Review: Taller front sight = lower POI - This sight is advertised as "does not fit the LCR 22 or 22 Mag." That's not technically true. The sight easily installed on my LCR 22 WRM in less than 10 minutes. With a proper 1/16" roll pin punch and some kind of block (a roll of duct tape works), you can install this sight in no time. I think the people complaining about the install don't bother to use a roll pin punch. To the sight itself, the Hi Viz sight measures .244" tall versus the OEM sight at .218" tall. On the 22WRM, that moves the POI down significantly (8-10" at 10 yards) with a normal POA. Your choices are really 1) re-install the OEM sight; 2) find another front sight option; or 3) "AIM HIGH" as they say in the Air Force. If you place the entire green dot "above" the rear sight, i.e. higher than a normal sight alignment would dictate, you can move the POI back up. I think I'll probably look for some other front sight option. I have to give the sight 5 stars because it installs easily, shows up clearly and crisply, and they DID say it wasn't for use with the 22WRM. Can't ding the sight because of my off-label use.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How durable is the fiber optic on this sight? My experience with fiber optic are that they break easily or pop out of their housings.**
A: You are right to be skeptical.  Fiber optics are inherently less durable.  I cure this on my hunting equipment by using super glue on the bottom of the fiber optic pipe where it runs along the frame of the sight.  I carry my LCR as a BUG on an ankle rig, and have for years.  This sight is an upgrade to the gun.  So far, so good, but it's only been a couple months.  Good luck.

**Q: Does it fit ruger Sr9e?**
A: No. This sight is designed for Ruger revolvers, not pistols.

**Q: Will it fit LCR 327 magnum**
A: My research says no although I haven’t tried it. Can only confirm what Ruger claims it will fit. It does fit on my .38 special !

**Q: I’m wanting to replace the factory front sight on my Ruger SP 101 snub nose , will this fit ?**
A: I had to do a little minor fitting to get it to seat properly. The “stem” held the sight slightly above the barrel. Once properly seated it’s a different improvement m.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great sight !!!
*by A***S on April 8, 2013*

I have two of these sights. They are very nice even in low light conditions. Any darker and you would want a laser sight. The only complaint I have is that there is no hardware with it like the XS Sight. Though if you have a small punch and some super glue, than this is great deal for you. The first one took a good 20-25 min. because it was a pain to line up the pin, but the second one took only minutes. ***** ADVICE--- Use a rubberband to hold the sight on and in place when you are hammering the pin. This will help greatly. I also advise not throwing anything away until it is assembled because those pins have a mind of their own sometimes.
