how well would this fit in the Colt LE 2960? And is it that small that you can hardly see the post? Would a 4-5 pronged sight tool install this sight?

It will fit fine. The UTG tool with 4 on one end and 5 on the other worked fine for me. The post is only slighty thinner than the stock unit, but I liked the change a lot. In low light this thing is a must. I have them on all my black rifles, and it actually comes installed from the facotry ont he new IWI Tavor Bullpup.BTW, Semper Fi brother.

Do not purchase, at arms length you can not make out the dot, I puchase a retro front sight (AR-15/M-16) for my TD carbine and Meprolight would not fit. Money wasted!!

Should fit in A2 front sight base fine, the green dot picks up well with eye, a 4-5 prong tool will work unless it is a shorter tool. Hope this helps.

I have a SIG M-4. I unscrewed the old front sight post and screwed in the new one. This front sight post is incredible in low light. I can see this new front sight post better than the old one and it is direct replacement for the original one that came with my rifle. I think all front sight post are standard size and fit. Being a 10-32 thread I THINK. Never the less they should all be inter changeable. I used the standard front sight tool to remove the old and install the new. It is very easy to do...simply unscrew the old one and screw in the new one. You will love it.

The LE 2960 looks to be a standard AR platform so it should fit. Sight is approx same size as OE but the Tru-Dot is extremely small, and useless in daylight. I swapped mine out for for a HiViz sight which I am much happier with. If you have great eyesight and have a need to shoot in low light this sight is ok, but I can see as well or better in low light with the HiViz. I used a stock sight tool to install the sight, not sure how many prongs it has. You can install it with a couple small screw drivers but may scratch it. All in all, not my choice now after installing the HiViz.

Yes. The sight post has a spring loaded pin to keep it in place. The pin can be depressed to allow for sight pin removal.

I have a standard front sight but I replaced the post with a tritium filled one from meprolight. Just make sure whichever one you pick that it is adjustable for elevation as this rear sight only adjusts for windage and distance.

I mounted standard flip up iron sights in my AR. You can see the sights great right through the multi dot. Don't know why the reticle on top or a later on the side wouldn't work also. Very versital!

It should fit fine. I would say the functionality of the sight is very limited and would probably be just for looks though.

I have mounted mine behind an Aimpoint PRO that was set for co-witnenn on a AR 15. It matched perfect. When behind my EOTech EXPS 3-2 it appeard to set too low, but surprisingly the sight picture was perfect, and centered

Mine fits just a smidge off from the nut as well. If you can get it to bite down it should be just fine. With the rail system yes picatinny is different, but there are some sights that can fit both types of rail systems. Luckily picatinny rail system is fairly popular and you should not have a problem finding a sight for it. Only problem you will have is finding a good sight to keep its zero. Hope this helps and if any other questions shoot them my way.

It is a small sight. I have it mounted on a 22 pistol. I have had no issues with my field of view in or outside the sight while using it. I would recommend it to anyone on the platform that use it on.

I have the same mount. It does fit. I've tried a couple different scopes and none feel tight to me. The stock is just short. I just use the see through iron sights. The scope itself is great for the price. I use it on my AR15. I've shot over 500 rounds. And no problems yet.

I mounted that exact set-up and had good results. It depends a bit on the iron sights, but if you're using the stock sights then it should be no problem.

I have mine mounted on a full size Charles Daly 1911, but going off the measurements of a Colt Officers Model, I am quite certain it would work. I've been 100% pleased with mine, I think you'll like it.

I own a Colt M4 carbine and I have the M2 front sight. It's factory and I don't want to mess with it. I have a Trijicon and a Bushnell sight, and ordered the UTG-1" adapter rail because the front sight was too high and the ACOG sight was not working. The 1" seems to do the trick for both sights, but I have not been to the range yet. That will tell the story, but I'm sure the problem was solved with the adapter.

I use this one in one of my rifles, it's not high quality like Larue, it works great for it's price. http://www.amazon.com/UTG-Double-Single-Integral-System/dp/B004RNC8GA/ref=sr_1_76?ie=UTF8&qid;=1400686619&sr;=8-76&keywords;=utg+mount+sight

Kahr PM is a small frame pistol: however, this shouldn't effect the sight master tool. I have used it on a smith and wesson shield and xds and it did fine. If the sights are capable or being pushed, this should do the trick IMO.

@jjnew It is too tall, and that ticked me off too. Instead of returning it I chose to get a 1" riser for my rear sight aperture to accommodate for idiodic sizing. Hope this helps.

this sight set was made to fit the Kimber compact pro carry 2! I don't know if it fits other slides! I know it does not fit the mustang and others like it! It was made to fit the Colt new detective and some of the Para warthawgs, as well as the Kimber, but I don't know for sure! if your ruger has a cut down rear slide at the rear, there is a good chance it might fit! Keep in mind, these sights and those like them take a tone of effort and a special sight pusher to press them on! Hope this helps! Other then that, these are first rate sights with bright, fresh inserts and make a great nite sight for any pistol they fit! this sight set was made to fit the Kimber compact pro carry 2!

Did you install the rear sight? If so, how did everything turn out? Do the front and rear sights line up and provide accuracy? I have the 590A1 and am looking forward having this kit installed. thx for the feedback.
