Psychbiker,

I own an identical pistol and am very happy with it. THe price being asked is probably not too bad considering everything you get with it. My question is, why would you need to put adjustable sights, fiber front sight, magwell, etc. on the pistol to shoot IDPA? I shoot IDPA every month with mine and it works fine with fixed sights, no magwell. The only mods I made were replacing the FLGR with a standard GI set-up and I changed out the mainspring housing to get rid of the silly locking device.
By the way, IDPA is a lot of fun! Jump in!
