Good evening gents!
Not having any luck online so decided I would ask the experts! Haha
So the other day at the range, to my surprise, my 1911 front sight broke off and took flight, never to be seen again. It was/is a stake in place type.
The pistol is a P14-45 frame with a. Colt government slide.
So obviously, I need a new front sight. Although I am quite handy, this pistol honestly means to much to me to try and tackle it myself and would rather have a more learned hand for it.
So, does anyone know of anyone trustworthy with quality work on the norman/okc area that works on 1911s? I’ve been told it is a very easy job with the right jig and peening tool, but I want it done right.
I’ve looked into having Novak cut a dovetail in, but have become so frustrated trying to get straight answers from them in the cost, that they pretty much have turned me off of them. It initially had a tritium type sight and I would like to go back with the same/similar.
Does anyone have any recommendations or the proper skill/tools to do it?
Thanks in advance gals and gents!
