Anyone have Trijicons installed on a P7?
Where'd you get it done and what was the turn around/price like? I've read that only the inserts can be installed as Trijicon doesn't make the actual sight. True? Just looking to have one in the front blade. |

True? Just looking to have one in the front blade. Trijicon makes the actual sight. I've had Trijicons and MMCs on my P7. I had a local gunsmith install them. Oh, BTW, Trijicons new HD Night Sights look awesome, but they don't make them for the P7, and I called them and unfortunately they have no plans to make them for P7s... |

I've installed the sights with a good drift punch, some leather, and a soft touch on one of my P7s that had lost its original white dots.
The rear sight required some fitting. I would be interested in seeing if meprolight makes P7 sights better. The long axis of the slide dimension was about five thousands too long. I would not recommend that you do this without at minimum being willing comfortably and safely taking a file, to the rear sight. Eventually, I am going to send in the original HK sights to have tubes installed, as they FIT perfectly, but for now, as a carry gun, the lack of blacking on the dovetail of the rear sight is acceptable. . |

I had my slide refinished and the sights installed at the same time. |
