Dawson Sight question
« on: February 23, 2018, 02:47:40 AM »
Hey guys, what is the difference between Dawson Precision Competition and Carry sights? They look VERY similar on the site, and they have the exact same description. I e-mailed the company asking for clarification and never heard back from them.

Carry Sights

Competition Sights
The fleet:
CZ 75 P-01
CZ 75b SA
S&W 19-3
S&W/Aero AR-15
Remington 870 Wingmaster
M1 Garand

The competition models extend a bit farther back towards the eye and have a bit of a rear angle.  Essentially, the carry models are a little less prone to snagging, whereas the competition models may give a slightly 'flatter' rear-surface profile.

Also, I believe the carry sights are supposed to have more of a ledge in front of the rear sight, for racking the slide against something for 1 hand manipulation.
List of guns here?
