1911 sight recommendation needed
I'm looking for a set of high-visablily sights that will fit into the Novak low-mount cut. I'd really like a set of the TRUGLO fiber-tritium sights for this pistol but when I called them over in Richardson TX they told me they weren't planning on making any in the Novak style untill 2009 or so. Who currently makes the esiest to see sights for someone with middle-aged eyes?

Ted Yost makes a great sight that will fit the Novak cut and can be fitted with tritium sights. I think Brownells carries them or contact Yost-Bonitz and buy them directly.

Sidenote: Yost is setting up his own (full-custom only) shop and won't be making parts any longer. Any Yost parts you may want, you better get now.

The XS sights like the 24/7, which I think is also sometimes called Big Dot, will fit in the Novak cut. I have them on my CZ 75 and they work very well for me. A couple of the instructors at Gunsite also use them.

+1 for the XS sights. Very fast and easy to see.

When considering US based operations of guides/outfitters, check and see if they are NRA members. If not, why support someone who doesn't support us? Consider spending your money elsewhere.

NEVER, EVER book a hunt with BLAIR WORLDWIDE HUNTING or JEFF BLAIR.

I have come to understand that in hunting, the goal is not the goal but the process.
