How is the current front sight installed, and how does the new front sight install?

Don't need one quite yet, just inquiring, but it's a dovetailed front sight. Colt CCU

More than likely, the new front sight will need hand-fit to the slide dovetail. You’re looking at a minimum of $20.

Figured $20-$40, thanks for taking the time to reply. Cheers

There used to be an outfit called Deer Creek but they supposedly moved without telling anyone where they went.

They said it would take up to 4 days to change out my XDs sights once. I never went back. My buddy at sharpshooters did it in 5 mins.

They moved to downtown Kennesaw. Their current address and info shows up in all my map apps.

Huh. No ****. Looks like their in wildmans building where the whistle stop use to be. I'll have to stop in.

CMshoot is your man. Look no further. To do so is a massive waste of time. He knows his stuff. PERIOD!

Four days' lead time & you got the RED-ASS over that? Guess you never heard about patience being a Virtue & all that...

Springfield people. They can't be reasoned with.
