cpa5oh Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 Trying to figure out what to do for my 85 combat as far as sights...if came with an adjustable rear sight, so I was thinking of going with either a front sight from cz-custom (thin one with a red fiber optic rod) or a Hi-Viz red fiber optic. Anybody have any thoughts on which of these I should go with...or another suggestion altogether. For some reason, sights make a big difference with my shooting. I put a Dawson fiber optic front sight on a Rock Island 1911 and instantly shot it better than without. I put a Dawson adjustable rear and fiber optic front on my Glock 34 and instantly shot it better as well. Seems my eyes like the fiber optic on a thin blade. I do like the idea of the adjustable rear, then again I'm new to action pistol and very new to CZ's so I'll go with whatever you experienced guys recommend. Thanks!

bigdave24 Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 The front sights from cz custom seem to be very high quality. Make sure you use the pin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chirpy Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 I have a HiViz on a 1911 and love it because it is brighter that others I have. Richard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sthrngnr Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 (edited) I really like using FO with a thin front blade sight. The hi viz is not as thin as the czc sight. I would go with the czc front sight and your stock adj rear. Good luck Jp Edited May 1, 2012 by JP THOMPSON Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cpa5oh Posted May 1, 2012 Author Share Posted May 1, 2012 I really like using FO with a thin front blade sight. Good luck Jp Me too...is the Hi Viz a thin front blade sight? Looks like it might not be that thin... I've got three options: - hi viz front sight, stock 85 combat rear (which is adjustable) - cz custom front sight, stock 85 combat rear (which is adjustable) - cz custom front and rear sights (rear is not adjustable) Anybody have any thoughts on what would work best for my 85 combat?

cpa5oh Posted May 1, 2012 Author Share Posted May 1, 2012 Got the answer from Hi-Viz about how wide their front sight is - .125". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
