Ok, I wanna put adjustable sights on my SA 1911A1 Loaded model. It currently has Novak carry sights on it from the factory, and I'm really only gonna use it as a range gun, so it should have sights that I can adjust and play with. The sight dovetail measures (at the bottom) .485. I called SA to try and get the target sights that they offer on their target models, but the person that I talked to today seemed even more clueless than I am about such things.
Is there a Bo Mar style that can be put on my pistol with out remachining it? I looked at the Brownells catalog, but like I said, I'm basically clueless as to interchangeability. Seems like everything else said to use a .465 dovetail. If I'm already too wide, what the heck do I do? The ones that did say that they worked with the stock sight cut I called about, and they couldn't tell me how big a "Stock" cut was!!!!!!!
HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's simple: I should've bought a pistol that had target sights on it to begin with, in light of the trouble I'm having!
I just want BoMar style adjustable target sights. Seems like to me the easiest thing would be to get the stock thing right from SA, but that was a dead end. The shops around here said "Call Brownells". Been there, done that. Now I'm here.
HELP. I love my new SA 1911A1 Loaded, 500 flawless rounds so far in only 2 weeks, but I want to add one more thing!
Thanks
Tom
