Description
The Hi-Viz LiteWave H3 Comp-Sight is a screw-on front sight built to replace the removable bead on your shotgun with something a whole lot easier to find fast. It leans on Hi-Viz's LitePipe fiber-optic tech for a bright glow in daylight, then hands off to encapsulated tritium once the sun drops, giving you a usable sight picture around the clock. Whether you're calling in a spring gobbler at first light, running clays, or keeping a shotgun ready at home, this little sight earns its keep.
What Sets the LiteWave H3 Comp-Sight Apart
The Comp-Sight name isn't just marketing. Hi-Viz's CompSight has long been a go-to for competitive shotgunners, and this H3 version adds the day-and-night trick to the formula. The fiber-optic LitePipes soak up available light for a punchy glow when the sun's out, while the tritium element keeps a steady point of aim in low light and full dark with no charging or batteries needed. That combo means you get one sight that works across every lighting condition you're likely to run into.
Fit and Setup on Your Shotgun
Installation is refreshingly simple. The screw-attach base threads right in where your old front bead came out, and the kit ships with five different screws (3-56/2.5mm x .45mm, 5-40, 6-48, 3mm x .5, and 3mm x .6) so it mates up with nearly any shotgun that has a removable, threaded front bead. It's a good match for 12 and 20 gauge guns from the usual names, though it's always worth checking that your bead unscrews before you order.
Colors That Match Your Eyes
Everyone's eyes track color a little differently, which is why the LiteWave H3 uses interchangeable LitePipes in red, white, and green. Pop one out, drop another in, and tune your sight picture to whatever gives you the cleanest, fastest pickup. Add in the all-steel frame and the wave-style exoskeleton protecting the pipe, and you've got a front sight that shrugs off rough handling in the field or on the range.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will the LiteWave H3 Comp-Sight fit my shotgun?
It's designed to fit most plain-barrel 12 and 20 gauge shotguns that have a removable, threaded front bead. The kit comes with five different screw sizes to match a wide range of rib threads from the common makers. Before ordering, just unscrew your existing front bead to confirm it comes out and is threaded.
How does it stay visible at night without batteries?
The sight combines fiber-optic LitePipe technology with encapsulated tritium. The fiber optic gathers ambient light for a bright glow during the day, and the tritium provides a steady self-powered glow in low light and total darkness. There's nothing to charge and no batteries to replace.
Can I change the color of the sight?
Yes. The LiteWave H3 uses interchangeable LitePipes in red, white, and green so you can pick whichever color your eyes track fastest. Swapping them is tool-free with the included changing key, so you can experiment until you land on your favorite sight picture.
How long does the tritium last?
Tritium naturally dims over time, and Hi-Viz backs this sight with a 12-year tritium warranty against total loss of illumination. In practice you'll get years of reliable low-light glow before it fades. The fiber-optic element keeps working in daylight regardless.
