Abstract

An improved aiming post light configuration wherein a luminescent material in conjunction with an optical taper or other magnification structure is positioned within the body of the aiming post along with a recharge circuit which recharges the luminescent material periodically or when light output from the luminescent material falls below a predetermined threshold. Advantageously, the entire configuration may be integral to the aiming post itself.
