Target sight for 1911
Had my LB Cusom Carry for 2-3 months,primarily home defense and target.It came with tritium night sights,small and dim.I am 74 and of course eyes not that great,they would be all right for home at short range, but target is not good.Need some suggestions for sights,especially if you have a Custom Carry.Thanks

Do you want fresh night sights or target sights?
The current trend in night sights is a front with a wide bright ring around the tritium lamp for high visibility in all lights. For daytime use, I prefer a black rear and a fibre optic front. I am a month away from catching up to your age. Do you know if the Baer sight cuts are standard Novak? Dawson has a wide selection, and could tell you about the dovetail. https://dawsonprecision.com/gun-sigh...-novak-heinie/ Kensight is another source. http://stores.kensight.com/kensight-...oured-profile/ http://stores.kensight.com/kensight-...errated-blade/ http://stores.kensight.com/rear/ http://stores.kensight.com/front-1/ |
