[QUOTE="Glocktogo, post: 1800562, member: 1132"] Ramped sights like those used to be in vogue for "speed draws". That was back when good holsters were scarce and molded in or reinforced sight channels were rare. What you gained in a snag free draw was offset by a less than ideal sight picture, particularly in direct sunlight. These days there's no need for a ramped front sight. FWIW, with that sight being "in the white" and unserrated on the ramp, a decent sight picture will be nearly impossible. [/QUOTE]
