needknees Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 I am all about supporting the guys/gals who support this site and what we do!I checked out the lik you gave me. I love the rear sight, but feel like I want something brighter on the front, did not see that as an option... Thanks by the way, you guys are great with the info for a new guy starting out, it's very appreciated. Shaun I've gotten two sets of Sevigny sights from CPWSA and was very pleased with the transactions. The Sevigny Competition sights have a GREAT sight picture with or without the fiber optic front. Here's how the FO front looks on my G34: It's a fantastic setup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun Posted April 21, 2008 Author Share Posted April 21, 2008 That looks good! That is likely the direction I will go, when I go. I like the stock sights on my gun a bit more than I thought I would and will probably stick with them for a bit. I ordered my true grip from CPWSA and recieved it quickly! Seems like a gret resource.

gunnerBU Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 I just got a 34, and I'm thinking about going with the Dawson fixed rear with the Dawson BLACK front. I have a Sevigny rear and Dawson FO front on my G35 and love it. Just want to try something different. Anybody have experience with the Dawson fixed rear?

Michael Carlin Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 I just put a set of Dawson's fiber optic on a Glock 17. I close them after shooting them on my trainer's gun a couple weeks ago. I called and them showed up in very short order. Installation was easy, the tool were included in the price. First impressions are quite favorable.

Shaun Posted April 21, 2008 Author Share Posted April 21, 2008 I think I may just send my slide into CPWSA, looks like a sweet deal and no danger of me messing it up, any of you have experience doing this, Turn around time? Accuracy when it comes back???? I'm new so I appoligize if this is a stupid question ! Shaun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flatland Shooter Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 My Glock 34 came in today. Nice gun but the 3-dot sights have to go. I'm leaning towards the Sevigny Competition sight rear with FO front. If the gun shoots low, how would I adjust these sights to compensate? It appears that we can't dress down the front sight since it has a fiber optic tube. So what do we do? Thanks. Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun Posted May 18, 2008 Author Share Posted May 18, 2008 I mailled my slide to Chris Thursday, it appears that he mailed it back today, Fast turn around! Sweet! I went with the FO front with The Sevigny Competition sights on the rear. Cant wait to see it and shoot it!!! Shaun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
epault Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 I'm currently running a black Dawson adj rear and .100 FO front on a Glock 35. I had a .090 FO front on a glock 34, I sold in a moment of weakness. Loved the thinner sight, but can't find another one. I've started opening up the rear notch on the Dawson rear sight with a file. I think this will work out since I cant find a .090 FO front. Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun Posted May 22, 2008 Author Share Posted May 22, 2008 Got my slide back from Chris P this am am. Looks sweet! I will be testing it out tomorrow, Perhaps I am fooling myself but it looks like it will really improve my sight picture and acqusition time..... we will see.

astephenson Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 Another vote for the Warren/Sevigny competition sights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun Posted May 28, 2008 Author Share Posted May 28, 2008 Very pleased with the new sights. I shot my best ever this past weekend, however it was only my third match, so that is not saying much. I love the new sights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ninefan Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 I use the Sevigny Competitions with the FO front on my G34. I have been very pleased with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kframe_mike Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 I finally got mine set up too.I went with a Dawson plain adjustable rear with a .125 plain front.Man what a difference!I got a plain .100 also,but I think I'll stay with the .125 front for now.

Bill You can get the Dawson FO fronts in various heights. If it shoots low, you would need a shorter front. Kind of a slow way of sighting in, though, that's why I have Dawson adjustable rear.

Shaun Posted May 31, 2008 Author Share Posted May 31, 2008 I was having a hard time really figureing out how my new sights are supposed to line up, sight picture I guess??? So I did some shooting from a bench las night and had a couple of other, more seasoned shooters shoot it also and it seems it groups a about 2-2.5 inches low at 30 ish feet. Not sure how to account for this and adjust? Fixed sights are fixed....so not sure what to do. I like the new sights as I feel I can acquire them more quickly, but at least for me thus far they ar eless accurate. Anyone have any thoughts for me? Should I try a new front sight?????

WARDOG Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 Try a different load/bullet. If gun shoot low, filing front sight would help but unless you have the proper equipment that is best done by a gunsmith, otherwise you risk to have an uneven top. I'm rather picky with sights, currently I'm using a regular heinie set, but I opened rear notch to .140 (from .122) and thanks to flexmoney advice, I filed front sights first to .115, then after deciding that I have trouble with plates at longer distance, I took the plunge and filed some more reaching .100. I tried optic fiber front but it was distracting, so I borrowed another tip from flex and painted a VERY VERY small dot with white paint on top of FS. This is my optimal setup for now.

gunnerBU Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 I am using a Dawson FO front with my Sevigny rear. Seems to be way more accurate than I am. (ie. doesn't shoot low) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike L. Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 Sevigny competition with f/o front on my G17. I really like the sight picture over the stock sights and the 3-dots on some of my other guns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun Posted June 15, 2008 Author Share Posted June 15, 2008 A heavier bullet seems to have corrected the problem, not sure I understand why, but it has. 165's shoots low, 18o's right on! Well the sights are on, not sure I am, but thats another matter Shaun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
