Most rear sights lean towards the shooter and often have horizontal grooves in them, both to use shadow to advantage to provide a cleaner sight picture. Express sights seem to lean towards the muzzle, and would seem to reflect glare. Any idea about that? History. Unrealized advantage to the design. Only thing I can think of is that it is less snaggy.
 
I was of the impression that the forward angle promoted subconscious visibility towards the front sight, and a natural focus on the target/aimpoint.

Nice Report! Im about to pull the trigger on booking the LDE with Patrick. I have been talking about it with him for about 3 yrs now. Romain hit me up the other day with an offer I can't refuse for 2027.

Andrew, I commented that your on 375 H&H for sale was the fair price.

Like I commented, my classic stainless has the original 24” barrel.

Did you buy yours with the barrel already cut down to 21” or did you do it (or a gunsmith)?
