Just purchased a RWS 52 to use mainly with open sites at about 25 yards max.This front site is about as crude as they come.I know I can buy a hooded front site,but I really prefer a simple bead on post.I called Umarex but they don't have anything like that.Any suggestions would be welcomed, although I'll probably end up having to make one myself.

Hi, the globe sight for open sights is not good, for years I have never like that unelss using a diopter rear sight, the front sight that comes on the 52 is not the greatest but maybe you could modify it a bit, I know I used my gun for several rounds with the open sights and found two problems, the rear sight was not that great it would wiggle a bit if you grab it and the front sight is not dark enough, perhaps blacken it up or maybe you could file on it a little so that you could sharpen up the sight picture. I think the globe and the one they come with is all that is around. However the one that comes with a globe does look like it might be a flat type dovetail rather than the angled one that comes with the guns, just some ideas, someone else might be able to help more.
