I am going to replace the front sight on my John Rigby .470. I was curious if anyone has a picture of the warthog ivory front sight insert that JJ makes. Thanks.

You have a Rigby double?

Have you posted pics of it? I'd love to see it.

Jim, that is a flip up. I was thinking he could just do one with a small bead of ivory in lieu of the brass bead. The rifle shoots high, so I need for him to replace the front sight blade with a higher blade anyway. I will give him a call in the morning.

Have him replace the front sight with a platinum faced one. It will glow with a bit of sunlight.
