The point of this gun is that it needs to be robust, and I want a backup for when the dot dies, it happens... MOS is a less secure mounting solution compared to direct milling. Many prefer backup irons in front of the optic for a less cluttered view.

I am planning to mill a Glock 17 gen 4 for an ACRO for use in IPSC Production Optics. It seems the rear sight dovetail has to be removed to mill the slide appropriately. However I have a need to have irons for co-witness on this pistol.
The IPSC rules state the following:
"Sights may be removed, trimmed, adjusted and/or have colors applied. Sights may also be fitted with fiber optic or similar inserts."
and
"Aftermarket open and optical/electronic sights and mounting plates are permitted, provided their installation and/or adjustment requires no alteration to the handgun other than the milling of the slide in order to facilitate the installation of an optical/electronic sight."
One way to get my rear sight "back" is to move the dovetail in front of the optic, would this be within IPSC rules? The rules state that sights may be adjusted, and that milling the slide is allowed? I can't see any competitive advantage by doing this either. The other option is perhaps a shim sight set (ATEI style)?

Does the installation of the hammer shift the position of the sear? The safety is stock.

I installed the CZ competition hammer and the pre-b disconnector in my Shadow 2. The single action trigger pull and the reset seems good, but I can't turn the safety on when the pistol is fully cocked, only when it is half cocked. Anybody have a solution?

I'm planning to change the hammer and disconnector on my S2 with a competition hammer and pre-b disconnector myself. But I don't have any experience "gunsmithing".
I've heard that it is really difficult to remove and insert the pin between the hammer and the disconnector in the shadow 1. Is it the same with the S2? Anyone have any good advice on how to do this?

Does there exist a wide right side safety for the Shadow 2? Does the Target Sports safety fit in combination with the OEM S2 left wide safety?
IPSC Production Optics rear sight placement
in USPSA/IPSC Rules

Thank you everybody for the input.
The question really is, if you have to mill away the rear sight dovetail to facilitate placement of the optic, are you allowed to place a new dovetail on the slide under IPSC prod optics rules, andcould it count as modifying the sights?
