Has anyone installed Glock sites on their G3c yet?

I was reading (I think on Lakeline's website) that the front screw on a glock site is tough to get into the slide of a G3c...

Thanks

yes i have done it on a G3C and yes the front site is a bit of a pain because the installation tool(nut driver) goes in a bit crooked and there isn't much "meat" on that tiny screw to grab.

This ! The rear sight wasnt a problem but the angle you have to get at the front sight nut was definitely a PITA . In the end it was worth it. 😎

Mine wasn't a problem. Getting the OEM screw out was, though. Damned thing stripped and I had to partially drill the damned thing out.

Putting the new front sight in was easy, though. I don't remember having any problems with it.

On my GX4 the front sight screw came loose and the front sight nearly popped off on the first trip to the range. Not a huge issue as I put a night sight on it anyway, but still annoying.

I think that Taurus has some work to do on their front sight screws, they're utter shit.

I put XS big dots on my G3 with no issues.
