I've heard that Ashley Express "big-dot" tritium sights can be installed on a Smith and Wesson mod 342PD, in place of the stock orange "Hi-Viz" sights. I have'nt taken a real close look at the 342PD so don't know if the front sights are pinned or integral.
My question is: Has anyone out there done this modification or know someone who has? Can someone like myself, who has a modicum of mechanical skill, install Ashley tritium big-dots or is this a job for a professional gunsmith?
Also, doing a search and looking into shooting directories does not turn up any website for Ashley Express sights. Can anyone direct me?
Thanks.
