cz75ipsc Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 Hey I just got a new SP-01. I'm loving the gun, except for the "crowded" sight picture. I'd like the front sight to be narrower and have a smaller fiber optic rod. I'm pretty much happy with the rear sight, but wouldn't mind changing that as well if need be. What sights do you recommend? I have next to zero gunsmithing skills, so I'd like it to be as "drop in" as possible. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alma Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 Check out Dawson Precision. Great sights and they drop right in for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andreas Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 There are a ton of sight options on the CZ Custom web site. Installing a new sights involves knocking out the roll pin, pushing out the sight, sliding in the new one, drilling the hole for the roll pin, and whacking the pin back into place. You can re-use the roll pin if you're careful. For a couple extra bucks you can get the correct size punch and drill bit along with the sight. The installation is really easy. If you can drill a hole, then you can do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Matzka Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 Check out Dawson Precision. Great sights and they drop right in for me. What alma said. You may want to call them, rather than just go by what's listed on their website. Ask them what thicknesses they currently have available. I bought a .090" plain blade(w/o fiber optic) from them a couple of years ago. Love it! Haven't looked back. Andreas is right, CZ Custom does have a lot of options. I just found that Dawson had the thinnest available, and that was a better option for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiefG Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 I replaced mine with; DP .175 tall, .100 width, FO size .060. It's drop-in with no drilling. It has a set screw to hold the sight in place, make sure to use loctite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
