Dominator Luminous Fibre Optic Front-Sight Assembly for DM870
The Dominator Luminous Fibre Optic Front-Sight Assembly is a replacement or upgrade front sight for the Dominator DM870, the shell-fed CO2 airsoft replica of the Remington M870 pump-action shotgun. A fibre optic rod gathers ambient light and makes the sight glow brightly, so it is much quicker to pick up than a plain black post when you snap the shotgun to your shoulder.
Shotguns are typically used at close and medium range, where speed of aiming matters more than fine precision. A bright front sight helps you get on target fast, which is exactly where a shotgun earns its place in your loadout. This assembly suits DM870 owners who want a faster, more visible sight picture or who need to replace a damaged front sight.
Design
The product photo shows a low, rib-style sight base with a green fibre optic rod running along its length and a glowing dot at the rear end, which is the point you line up in your sight picture. The fibre is protected by the surrounding base, which helps prevent it being knocked out or snapped.
Fitting and use
Fit the sight following the method used for your DM870’s existing front sight, making sure it sits straight along the barrel. Check it is firmly secured before use. In use, keep both eyes open and put the glowing dot on the target; fibre optics work best in daylight and are less effective in very dark conditions.

Compatibility

Care and maintenance
Keep the fibre clean with a soft dry cloth, avoid solvents, and protect the sight from knocks in transport, as fibre optic rods can crack if struck. If the fibre becomes dull or damaged, replace the rod or the assembly.
Who is it for?
This sight suits Dominator DM870 owners who want a brighter, faster front sight for close-quarters shotgun play, or who need a replacement for a damaged sight.
