I lost this knife last year during the first few days of shotgun season while I was crawling through the thickest briar patch you've ever seen. It was part of a large wooded island way out in the salt marshes of the Cape that always holds deer and so we push it hard every year.
My buddy who was pushing the same area 2 days ago radio'd me that he just looked down while crawling under a branch and there was my knife.
I never thought I'd see this thing again! It collected some rust on the internals but a little CLP and compressed air loostened stuff up nicely. Blade bolsters and scales certainly show that it sat outside in a salt marsh for a year but its still a solid Buck knife. I had my initials engraved on it years ago and its the only knife I've ever had my initials on. I still can't believe I have it back.

The front sight comes out using a plunger on the front of the barrel. It's spring loaded. Pull the old sight out and slide the new one in. Done.
They give you red, hi viz red, white and hi viz green light pipes with the kit. I hit targets at 100 yards easily with mine.
