Got my new fiber optic front site from Andy yesterday as well. They look very nice and bright! Was able to install the fiber easily, nice and snug. Just not sure if I should glue it into the site or use a punch to expand the ends so the fiber does not fall out. Any thoughts about securing the fiber?

No Glue !!
Follow the tutorial, I left a little length to capture more light. Basically, use a modern lighter and let the heat, NOT FLAME "mushroom" the end. about .375" inches away and 3 or 5 seconds will do the trick...

What tutorial? Where?
Never mind, I tried this new program called "Google". Seems to work OK, but I doubt it'll catch on.

Thank you guys for your business!.... No glue just flame. Also the rod is .060 in case anyone needs to replace.
