Anyone have the DP adjustable rear and FO front set-up for their rigs?

Anyone opt for a serrated front instead of the FO?

Got PICS?

Information on the front and rear sights begins on page 3 with a good PIC on page 5.

Thanks, I called and ordered a set today. I mentioned that their website was a little hard to navigate. Evidently, I'm not the first to complain, the girl I spoke to said there website will be overhauled this week.
I ordered optic front and rear. Heres a link I just got for different optics:

Very good. I just ordered the Target rear with both a .105 serrated ramped optic front and a .125 serrated ramped non-optic front.

Have not tried optic fronts since messing with that junk Hi-Vis stuff a couple of years ago so I got both optic and non-optic fronts just in case.

Definately went with the target non-optic rear because I don't need to be focusing none to much on the rear as much as the front...... too much optic going with it on both the rear and front IMHO.

I thought about that to, but I figure I can always tone down the rear with a permanent marker or remove them altogether or find a not so bright optic color like blue.
I went with a .125 wide because of the increased sight radius which makes the front appear smaller.
Should be here friday, weather permitting (BLIZZARD!).
I used to be a dedicated black target sights only shooter, but my eyes aren't what they used to be.

Is that the ramped front or partridge type? .125 width?

Went with the ramped .125 thinking the .090 or the .105 FO was too thin.......

The adjustable rear is only .110 wide making the .125 front excellent for precision target work but much too wide for competition work.

Think I'll try the .090 non serrated blade and see if that opens things up a bit.
