Thanks for responding, I was beginning to wonder if had broke some kind of unwritten rule and had been blackballed from the forum. You both have good points. I'm not crazy about the front sight being just a vertical line. I would prefer a 3 dot setup. But yes I like your ideas about model paint. I believe I will try that first.
I have only seen night sights made for the 75/85 series, with some being interchangeable with the 83/82. I'm close to them, so I would like to investigate XS sights. I like the sight picture on those. I am worried they would be too big for the pistol. We'll see, at $120 a set, that might be a while in the making.
Regardless if they fit or not, the sight situation will be secondary on the list of upgrades for the pistol. First, a new finish.
