Ledelitewave Front Sight

HiViz Shooting Systems has expanded its revolver lineup with the introduction of the LiteWave Front Sight for the Ruger Redhawk Alaskan. Designed specifically to complement the rugged performance of Ruger's Redhawk Alaskan revolver, the new LiteWave Front Sight promises fast target acquisition, durability and a customizable sight picture.

Featuring an integral LitePipe locking system and a durable exoskeleton, LiteWave sights allow shooters to tailor their sight picture using interchangeable green, red or white reusable LitePipes. The result is a crisp, visible front sight optimized for varying environments and light conditions. All LiteWave sights are holster-friendly and built to withstand the rigors of the field.

Features:

  • Interchangeable LitePipes in Green, Red, and White
  • Factory-height front sight compatible with factory rear sights
  • Pinned front sight design; sight must be fit and drilled for the retaining pin
  • Fits standard holsters
  • Compatible with the HiViz LiteWave Fiber-Optic Rear Sight for Ruger Revolvers (RGRAD211)

"HiViz is always looking for ways to advance the art of shooting, and this new LiteWave front sight is the natural addition to the Ruger Redhawk Alaskan platform," said Phil Howe, founder of HiViz Shooting Systems. "The Ruger Redhawk Alaskan is trusted by shooters who demand reliability and performance in challenging environments. By pairing it with a clean, bright, and customizable sight picture, we're helping shooters get the most out of an already exceptional revolver, no matter the environment. When reliability matters, this combination is top notch."
