Slalom45 Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 Does anyone make one? Henning's has one listed but appears it's on perpetual backorder from the supplier. I have a Stock II on the way and would really prefer a fixed rear (with a bit wider notch) as that's what I've always used. Any suggestions appreciated.

V2plus25 Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 Dawson Precision can make custom sights. They might be able to help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATLDave Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 The fixed rear replacements for the LPA supersights have been "in the works" for many years. Unless you have one custom made, you may just have to learn to love the adjustable one. If your Stock 2 is going to be in 9mm, you likely won't have a problem with it. If you're running major PF, it can give some difficulty. One really important point about it - sometimes, the socket/hole for the elevation adjustment screw comes with or collects grease. If you take the screw all the way out and clean out that hole, a little bit of loctite will keep the sight from losing adjustment. If you don't clean it out, loctite does nothing.

Slalom45 Posted June 25, 2019 Author Share Posted June 25, 2019 I appreciate the suggestions. Will give it a shot for a while and see how it goes... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
e-mishka Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Yeah, no good solutions yet. I did buy czcustom fixed rear for tactical sport and fitted it to my Tanfo Limited. Its good but bulky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slalom45 Posted June 26, 2019 Author Share Posted June 26, 2019 Any of you attempt to widen out the notch on the factory sight? I'm really more concerned about that than the adjustable aspect of it. I've always used more light around the sight and at 50 the eyes need it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATLDave Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 I've never fooled with the rear sight notch, but I've but in the Henning front sight. I don't know if the actual blade is narrower, but it has a much smaller fiber which suited me. I did not enjoy the huge fat fiber that Tanfoglio sticks in there.

HesedTech Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 (edited) I have more than one Tanfoglio and the LPA rear sight works well on them all. Only problem I have had are the mounting screws coming loose. Just remove the adjustment not screw and locktite them in (I use blue and not red). Additionally eventually you will want to make a sight adjust. Rather than make the rear wider get a narrower front site as in Dawson. Much simpler than filing away on the rear. https://dawsonprecision.com/eaa-witness-match-fiber-optic-front-sights/ Edited June 26, 2019 by HesedTech Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATLDave Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 Yeah, I like my .40-bore Limited a lot. I have broken a sight or two on it over the years (hinge pin at the front). That's not uncommon with major PF, but it seems to hold up very well to 9mm. Glad yours hasn't given you any trouble. May be luck of the draw on the metallurgy of those pins. I ended up replacing the pin with drill stock, hasn't broken since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aales1 Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 I do not know more about it, its the first time I saw it, but apparently Tanfoglio makes one: https://www.tlgunshop.com/PBSCProduct.asp?ItmID=27026525 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
