RAZZ Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 Are the front sights on the P30 the same as a USP? Also, is the rear sight just a Novak cut, or is it something proprietary? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cjennings Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 Wow.. I was just about to post that same question for my P30 and USP. I thought it was dovetail. I run an expert with its slide milled rear site. I am looking for a front fiber to keep my target black rears. Dawson has a front sight listed but its for the USP standard pistol. It would seem to me I have so much adjustment in elevation on my Expert that I should be fine with the stanard hight front sight. The stock expert sight seems excessively tall.

RAZZ Posted April 19, 2011 Author Share Posted April 19, 2011 I found out that the USP and P30 do not share the same front sight dovetail. I was able to find a sight with a larger dovetail, and then file it down to fit the HK dovetail. It works, but its a pain. I wish someone, anyone, would make a decent set of sights for the P30.

cjennings Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 Surely dawson precision should be jumping on this. With the P30 starting to gain a lot of sales and a place in IDPA and USPSA production I cant see them not wanting to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have called Dawson a number of times, Novak Warren and Heinie, all with no results. Heinie makes a sight for it, but they won't make it in any configuration other than the straight 8 night sights, and only with a big .155 rear notch. I'm not sure what else to do.

Mo Hepworth Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 Looks like the ball may be rolling at Dawson....if you look in the dealers section you can see what I mean. I am hoping they make a much thinner front FO unit, and an adjustable rear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryan 45 Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 Razz, did I see a picture on another forum of your gun w/ new sights???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAZZ Posted July 6, 2011 Author Share Posted July 6, 2011 Nope, that's my bastardized Kimber front sight (which actually works pretty well). I just got a tracking number in my e-mail from Dawson, and my new sights will be here Friday. If the UPS guy shows up before I go into work at 4pm, you'll have pictures and possibly a range report.
