Sieger,

They may have these cheaper elsewhere, but this is the one I have. It works well and improves my sight picture a lot!

I can't shoot for crap with open sights anymore without it. With it, I usually do ok but still learning the drill with the luger for best results. Thanks for the shooting suggestions Sieger and Nukem!

Thats a good price for a basic one.....Champions Choice sells a more expensive one with an adjustable iris for aperture size....regardless,they do help.

Yes, they help with my aging eyes a lot. The Lyman one is very light, all plastic compounds but mine has lasted years. The suction cup does not stick quite as well as when new, but it's still ok.

I don't understand the physics of the thing, but the result is very much like cranking camera aperture way down - greatly increased depth of field. Without using it, my front sight is fuzzy and my rear sight is a double image; with it - they are both pretty clear, quite effective.
