rami night sights

Will the sights from any other cz pistol fit on the rami?  I don't think they will.

For the front sights, most CZ75s seem to use the same (unique to CZ) immovable fore & aft dovetail sight pinned in, while the Rami uses the standard Novak cut front sight dovetail, which is adjustable for windage.

You can use standard CZ conical rear sights on the Rami, but it will shorten the sight radius somewhat.

CZ Custom has a chart of the various dovetail cuts for CZ rear sights, but I'm not sure which ones fit which.

Thanks for the info.  Not many options for night sights for the rami.  I never have like 3 dot sights.  I run iDot Pro's with the orange front ring on most of my other pistols.  About the only 2 dot sights I can find for the Rami is the XS Big Dot, or Standard Dot, and I'm not very fond of those either.  O well, I guess I'll have to get use to the stock sights.

CZ Custom sells Trijicon sights for the Rami, which I've always preferred to Meprolites, which are OEM on the Rami. Again, those are going to be three dot.  I tried the XS Big Dot on my Rami, but it was way off for me and wouldn't stay put in the dovetail.

Honestly, with my aging eyes, I'm seriously thinking about putting a red dot optic on my Rami, especially since there are no easy options to fit a laser.

Red dot is an option but between the cost to cut the slide and the cost of the red dot.....   I'm not sure I want to spend that much.  I was just looking at the Dawson fiber front sight.  The red fiber front would contrast with the stock green rear sights.  Wouldn't help at night at all but would work fine as long as there's some light.

CGW has night sights for the RAMI.  After I get a little time, I'm planning on getting a pair for mine.

I have the rear sight from the TFX PRO on my RAMI.  Fits fine.  As for a red dot-
I had one on for awhile.  I decided it made the pistol less of a CCW and took it off.
You don't have to have the slide cut.  I used a Springer Precision red dot mount.
The one made for the CZ 75 series fit fine.

My choice for a red dot is the Docter (yes that is how it's spelled).  The best place I found to get one is:

https://www.optics-trade.eu/us

They are a really good company to deal with.  Even though it comes out of Slovenija they are fast and reliable.
They have a facebook page as well as twitter, youtube vids, Instagram...  I've used them 3 times and always
about 2 weeks to my front door.

Good luck with what ever you decide.

Is anyone running the Dawson fiber front sight?  With my old eyes I need a front sight that stands out when I shoot. Fiber isn't much good for night shooting but I can always carry one of my other pistols at night and only carry the rami for day.
