    ASAP - Need help finding fiber optic rod

    Need a replacement fiber optic rod (1.0 mm / .040" ) for my front sight. Can be in SoCal or the Bay Area.

    Tried all my local shops on Burbank. No luck. Need it by this weekend for a couple matches.

    It's for a CZ Shadow, but any 1.0 mm rod should work. Help! Any leads appreciated.

      It's not a DP front, but I imagine any 1.0mm sized rod works.

        Not sure if I have the right size, but I have a length of FO filament as replacement for my own front sights. It's the thickness that is standard in Dawson FO front sights.

        I'll take a caliper to it in a few minutes and see if that tells me the size.

        I'm located in the East Bay (Hayward/Castro Valley area).

            If it is a Truglo sight, I hear that you can call them and they have a kit for a few $$ that will help you replace a few FO rods in their sights. I emailed them about it and am waiting for a response.
