NoFe2O3 Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 Hi All, I just got a Browning Buckmark. It's the Shot Show 2017 model ("Black Label"). I want to replace the plain black front sight with a fiber optic; maybe a red-dot rear later on; we'll see.... My gunsmith tells me that the front sight is not the same as that on most BuckMarks, and he can't find a Dawson to replace it. Suggestions??? Thanks in advance; you folks have been an amazing source of info so far!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fosters3 Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 You must have a contour model. Hold tight - I have a guy making a prototype for me. It will be after the first of the year before I have it. Once approved it will be for sale. I could not find one either. steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoFe2O3 Posted December 19, 2017 Author Share Posted December 19, 2017 Thanks for the response! I'll be watching for your post after you get your prototype! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petrojc Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 If you have a small drill press and a dremel tool, you can make your own. I have a 5.5 field, there is no aftermarket fiber optic sight for it, and I can't shoot with black on black anymore. Use a 1mm drill bit and a 0 finding ruler to get in the right spot.
