An improved clarity sighting system; the improved clarity sighting system includes a collection of front and rear firearm sights, and a gauge tool having mock front and rear sights representing each of the genuine front and rear sights. The gauge tool simulates sight pictures formed by the alignment of the mock front and rear sights. Each of the mock-front-sights corresponds to and replicates the size and shape one of the genuine front-sights, and each of the mock-rear-sights corresponds to and replicates the size and shape of one of the genuine rear-sights. In this way, a user may visually determine which combination of each of the plurality of front-sights and each of plurality of rear-sights matches the user's vision. Each of the genuine front and rear sights are enlarged and are tapered on each face towards the muzzle of then firearm in order to enhance clarity.

An open sight for use on weapons such as handguns is introduced. The open sight features two rear aiming marks which are illuminated by an artificial light source mounted in the rear sight. A third aiming mark in the front sight is illuminated by a forward-facing light source also mounted in the rear sight. The front sight is dimensioned to substantially block the forward directed beam to reduce the visibility of the illumination forward of the weapon.
