    These luminous sights come in three parts, the rear part is clamped onto the rear sight, it can only go in one place. The front is in two parts a spring assembly and the front sight assembly. The front sight protector has to be removed as well as the front sight element, the luminous front sight element is then fitted in its place along with the spring assembly which when in place will hold the luminous post in place either up or down so that the normal sights can be used during daylight. These sights lost their "shine" many years ago but even when they did work I think if you actually hit something using them it would be more by luck than judgement, rather like shooting in the dark!!!!
