The Shadow 2 Orange is a version of the Shadow 2 with its own front sight. For owners who want to change it, there are two 7.5 mm fronts made for this model.
Two front sights
The first is a blank front sight by CZ, the factory maker, a plain black blade without fiber or dots. A blank front gives a crisp, glare free outline that suits slow, precise shooting and shooters who want nothing bright in the picture.
The second is a fiber optic front by Zendl from the Czech Republic, with a 1.5 mm rod. The rod collects daylight and shows a bright point at the tip of the blade, which is quick to find when you shoot fast.
Why change only the front
At the instant the shot breaks, your eye should be on the front sight. Swapping it changes the sight picture without touching the rear sight or its adjustment. If the new front is a different height, re-check your zero.
Both are in Sights for CZ Shadow 2 Orange. Rear sights and plates for the Shadow 2 are on the Shadow 2 page.
