I was looking for a few adjustable sight suggestion. I am kinda leaving the field open to see what you guys suggest and why. They are going on a range 1911/CCW piece. It is not my EDC but will still get carried from time to time.

i would suggest you go to brownells site and look around.
most people would say(and still might)adjustable sights are for range guns, and i would agree, but i have seen some that are more like an adjustable for a glock.

It depends on what you mean by range shooting.  Shooting people sized silhouettes at 7,10 or 15 yards is fine with non-adjustable sights, but if you are trying to hit small targets at 50-75 ft or more than I can be an issue if the non adjustable sight does not shoot to point of aim, is off in elevation and/or is mounted to solidly to drift adjust easily for windage.

The other side of the coin is that some adjustable sights are higher profile and less optimum for CCW - but generally that is a  compromise  many shooters can live with.

Novak low-mount rear dovetail with adjustable Champion rear.   Gives you the most options down the road for other sights, and isn't as uncomfortable to use as a Bo-mar type.

BAM!  There it is.  Mr. Mays has recommended a very nice adjustable sight that fits in the most popular dovetail cut.

I ain't in love with it.  I've been meaning to get the curved insert from the guy who sold it to me... he has it sitting a drawer somewhere.
