Gentlemen,

I have a Wilson 1911. The rear sight has Tritium tubes in it. I can not find a place that has available, a fiber optic rear sight that is cut for the Wilson slide. Is it possible to have the tubes removed and have Fiber Optic rods installed? I have been using this blaster for local matches only and do not need the tritium sights.

Any leads in the right direction would be greatly appriciated as usual.

Jerry

Jerry, Your best bet would be to buy a new Wilson sights without inserts and have a smith' or competent machinist drill the sights for the fiber optic rods.

I called Novaks after many friutless hours of calling local smiths and manufactures.

They said send it in.

6 days later I get this box in the mail. A perfect installation of exactly what I wanted.

3 cheers for Novak.
