CZ factory sights - happy?

[cremaley]

Having second thoughts about purchasing the CZ XS night sights. I am shooting so well with the stock sights I hesitate to change them.

I've had that same issue before.....want a different sight setup but the factory ones seem dialed in for me......

The CZ XS sights are the same size/height as the factory photo-luminescent three dots the handgun came with.  They're machined from barstock instead of being MIMed or cast, and they have tritium lamps.  The front sight is basically bullet proof on the installation.  It's a caterpillar type dovetail, so it'll go in and it's done.  The rear sight could be slightly trickier, as it's a transverse dovetail, and allows for windage adjustment.  What I've found that works well is to use a mechanical pencil and lightly mark the outside edges of the sight on top of the slide, and eyeball a mark in line with the set screw.  Drift the rear sight out, drift the new sight in and line up the three marks.  Put a few rounds down range to verify that the windage is  on, then red loctite the rear.  Loctite 262 (the red hi-strength) as well as the VibraTite equivalent work very well at flowing into joints through capillary action.

Thanks for sharing. Very good advise.
