Well I've been looking for the front sights for a pair of M72A5's I've got for a while now, Now I've just found out why i can't find them. "The two white crosses on the sight (at the 100 and 150 meter marks) employ promethium-147 containing radioluminescent paint. After the LAW has been fired, the sight is removed and turned in to the Radiation Safety Officer (RSO) for disposal."

Well that explains why
