Globe sight

A globe sight is a front sight component used to assist the aiming of a gun/device, usually those intended to launch projectiles, such as firearms, airguns, and crossbows. It is found in particular as a front sight element on rifles.

To obtain a usable sighting line, the diopter has to have a complementing rear sight element.

Diopter and globe sighting lines are commonly used in ISSF match rifle shooting events.
