| I have a 1911 which uses usgi sights. I am needing to have new sights put on hopefully night sights. Are there any good places to send just the slide and has somewhat quick turnaround. |
| Have you thought of going local. Otto Comp or Eric over at Top Gun. I had a 6906 and 6904 that had blade sights and Eric put night sights on both. Even the night sights for those specific weapons didn't fit and had the slide had to be cut. Both turned out great. Otto does excellent work you might have to wait longer. You show Mo. this only makes sense if in the St. Louis area. |

I just sent my slide in. I made any windage adjustments on my own. Quoted:

Out of curiosity, are you guys sending the whole gun or just the slide? Whole gun means they can properly align the sights? But much easier to send a slide in the mail. My 1911's came cut with dovetails so I just had a local smith push my sights on and I tap with punch at range to drift windage. Most times I never change them I just know where the pistols hits and know how to line the sights. My G17 hits left so I just change my sight alignment slightly because the sight change would be so small it is not worth moving. |
