COBRA/PYTHON FRONT SIGHTS Reviews & Ratings

These original Colt factory replacement Cobra Front Sights bring modern low-light sighting technology to Colt's new revolver. They are correct replacement for damaged front fiber optic or Tritium sights OR excellent upgrades if your Cobra came out of the box with a plain "iron" front sight. The Fiber Optic Front Sight's open top lets its red fiber optic rod gather and concentrate available ambient light, so the sight appears to glow and naturally attracts your eye. The self-illuminating Tritium in the Tritium Night Sight's insert produces a soft glow to help you achieve a quick sight picture in really low light, while the eye-catching white ring around the insert attracts the eye in daylight. With either sight, the result is you pick up the sight faster and get it on the target faster for improved shooting performance almost any lighting conditions.

Much to the joy of Colt fans all over the world, the Cobra represents the company's long-awaited return to series revolver production. But preferring a classic wheelgun as your go-to sidearm doesn't mean you have to settle for a traditional plain black front sight. Get your Colt Cobra a genuine factory replacement front Fiber Optic or Tritium sight, and update your revolver to 21st century capabilities.

FREE!

Since Colt's replaceable front sights, fiber optic and tritium, are ON SALE, why not make them FREE? All three have been out of stock for months but some miracle all three went ON SALE! What am I missing?

Colt Cobra Classic 2017, 2in

So much better and practical than the stock brass bead sight. Easy target acquisition in low-light conditions. I really can't tell the difference between this Marble Arms (orange) sight and the Colt (red) sight; the Marble Arms is $2.00 more though. Overall, I am very satisfied.

King Cobra 3in

These are hard to come by. Seems like demand exceeds supply. I waited for this one too for over a year. Well worth the wait! So much better than the brass bead stock that comes with it. Easy target acquisition. Overall impressed!!

King Cobra Carry 2in

Perfect fit for my edc. Much better than oem brass bead sight! I've waited over a year for this. I signed up for email alerts; but I must have deleted the one where it says its back in stock. So about everyday for a month I kept checking. It paid off. Now I got the sight that I need and want!

Helps with front sight visibility

Installs easily on the 2020 Python, and improves front sight visibility in daylight conditions. It seems to be the only fiber-optic sight available for the Python, and fits just like the factory original. One thing to be aware of, it seems to be not as high as the original sight, so you might need to adjust the elevation on the rear sight. Review the manual for your gun; with the Python, you need a .05" hex wrench to loosen the screw holding the sight in. Interestingly, one of the wrenches that comes with a Crimson Trace laser I have on another gun fits perfectly.

Great front Sight

I bought this because initially I thought it would help me with accuracy. Because my Colt has a 2in. barrel it is slightly challenging being on point with practice shooting. However, I realized after I bought it, that this sight is more helpful for shooting in low light situations. It was very easy to install. I watched a YouTube video that walked me through it. Although it does not help with shooting accuracy, I am very happy I purchased this sight because it will definitely help in the event of an emergency and there is minimal light. Practice makes perfect, so I am working on my accuracy and Im getting better! I also wanted to mention that I spoke to customer service and they were delightful to speak with. Great overall experience.

The high lite of this gun.

This sight stand out for easy sight line up on the target.

Huge Improvement Over Stock Sight

This sight is a huge upgrade to the dull brass bead that came standard on my King Cobra. The fiber optic is much easier to pick up, even in low light when the fiber isnt glowing like it does in bright daylight. This was also the easiest sight Ive ever installed on a handgun and can be done by anyone with a .050 Allen wrench.
