Easy Hit Fibre Optic Shotgun Sights in South Africa

Easy Hit makes fibre optic bead sights for shotguns, and the reason they sell is speed of acquisition. A bright glowing bead is far easier to pick up against a moving target than a plain metal one, particularly in poor light or against a busy background. NeonSales carries 3 Easy Hit products, from R1,457 to R1,489.

How a fibre optic bead works

The fibre gathers ambient light along its length and channels it to the exposed tip, which is why the bead appears far brighter than the surrounding light would suggest. There is no battery and nothing to switch on. Brightness scales with available light, so it is at its best in exactly the conditions where a plain bead disappears.

Ring or ring dot?

Check the thread before ordering

Shotgun bead sights screw into the rib, and thread sizes vary between manufacturers. Common patterns exist but are not universal, so identify what your existing bead threads into rather than assuming. The version supplied with a mount is the option where a threaded bead position is not available or suitable.

Common questions

Will this help my clay shooting? It helps you find the bead faster, which matters on a fast target. It does not correct lead or technique, so treat it as a visibility aid rather than an accuracy upgrade.

Does it work at dusk? Fibre optic brightness depends on available light, so it fades as light does. In genuinely dark conditions there is nothing for the fibre to gather.

Can I fit it myself? A threaded bead swap is straightforward with the right tool. If your existing bead is seized or the thread is unclear, a gunsmith is the safer route.

Are the fibres replaceable? Fibres can be damaged by impact. Check the individual listing for whether replacements are available for the model you choose.
