I've thought about removing the front sight, but it looks to be a
solid & integral part of the front end. Magic Marker to 'blacken' the
ring, so it doesn't reflect as well?


Try using a matte black paint on the top and rear surfaces of the blade.

This also helps with any set of "iron" sights since it provides better
contrast than blued/parkerized finishes.

Old-time target shooters used to use a sooty-flamed lamp/candle to put a
layer of "lamp black" on their sights for this very reason. grin
