Hey Gents,
So...I am itching to swap out the front sight on my DW CCO (circa 2014). I want to install a Trijicon HD front sight with my Heinie rear, as I've run the Triji's on Glocks and love the sight picture with them.
BUT....they don't make 'em for the Springfield cut, which is .350" wide. They do make them for a Novak cut which is .330 inch wide.
I was thinking I could add a bead of JB Weld along the edges of a front sight from Trijicon and then file it down to fit
Anyone tried this? Y'all think it would hold? Can you even file on JB weld?
I'm about to just pull the trigger and send the damn slide off to Novaks or John Harrison and have them Tig weld the front dovetail and just re-cut it to Novak spec's......
