A couple of weeks ago the fiber optic on the front sight of my P229 came out. I read some where, were this is a common occurrence. Anyway, I call the Sig customer service department today and they want me to pay $59 to have it replaced since I am not the original owner of the firearm. What I would like to know is what are my options? Should I just buy a brand new set of sights and if so, which brand do you recommend? Or should I just try and get the customer service department to send me another front sight at their cost? Please advise and thanks in advance.
