The invention relates to a uniquely designed set of iron sights for a firearm. The rear site includes a ring aperture and notch located directly above the ring aperture. The front site includes a bead or substantially circular section to be centered inside the ring and a thinner post style extension located above the bead to interact visually with the notch.

A gun sight assembly includes a housing with an inner bore and a sleeve. The sleeve has an axial cavity in which a luminescent source may be housed. The sleeve is press-fit into the bore such that complementary engagement features of the bore and the sleeve engage each other to lock the sleeve in place within the bore. In one version, the sleeve can be first received within an adapter configured for press-fit into the bore of the gun sight blank.

A sighting system for a firearm and related methods are disclosed. The sighting system has front and rear flip-up sights, wherein the front sight comprises a flip-up portion having an aperture through which a sight post can partially extend; a knob comprising one or more notches on a first side and the sight post extending from a second side; at least one detent arranged to face and interact with the one or more notches. The knob is configured to rotate about a first axis, where the rotation causes the sight post to move in a first direction along the first axis; tilting of the knob in a second direction based on the detent interfacing with the notches; and tilting of the sight post in the second direction, thereby forcing at least a portion of the sight post to press against the aperture, or a combination thereof.

A sight for a firearm includes a housing, a tritium light source, a light transmission rod, and a retainer. The housing is configured to be mounted to a firearm. The tritium light source is supported within the housing. The light transmission rod is disposed in a cavity of the housing and positioned adjacent the tritium light source. The light transmission rod is configured to collect and transmit both an ambient light and a light from the tritium light source. The retainer is removably engaged with the housing and fixes the light transmission rod within the cavity. Removal of the retainer provides access for replacement of the light transmission rod.
