Recommended 75D PCR aftermarket sights.
« on: September 05, 2021, 10:25:16 AM »
I am looking to get some sights to replace the stock PCR tiny three dot sights. I am looking at sight made specifically for the PCR probably from CGW or CZ Custom and line up the same as the stock ones, This is my primary carry so night sights would be great but not opposed to others. FO front blacked out rear, but nothing that overhangs on the rear. The three dots are getting harder to see at my age, I can use them but not preferred. Anyone have any experience and what were the results? The stock sights are pretty much like the ones pictured below and I would like to keep them that way. Thanks in advance.

While I like the sights, as I’ve aged, I found I need something more pronounced- especially for the front sight to quickly draw my eye towards. What I’m trying to say is unlike my FO or TRUGLO TFX sighted CZs it takes me a little longer to acquire the sights picture with this set up

I went with the CZ Custom short tac rear plain black and FO front on 4 of my CZ's including my well used and carried PCR. I like the FO front on my daily carry guns. I prefer the green rod and I have no problem acquiring the sights with this set up. The short tac rear with the 5.5mm FO front mimics the factory sighting with a superior sight picture.
I'm passing the mid 50's point this year so my eyes ain't what they used to be either.

Thanks for the responses, Those are actually two of the set ups I was considering, I was also considering the Dawson Precision night sights and FO from CGW.

I went with the Dawson's and they are a great option too. Much better than the stock sights

I had a set of the Dawson/CGW sights which are actually made for them by Night Fission on my PCR for a minute. To me they were very little improvement over the factory sights and the front sight went dead in under 400 rounds. Took them off and tossed them into my land of unwanted spare parts.

Thanks for the responses. I have pretty much decided on at least a front night sight and will probably go with CZ custom for the sights. The jury is still out on night sight on the rear or just blacked out. Thoughts?

I am leaning more towards your set up,  Since this is primary carry I want to have every advantage possible with night sights. Just don't know about the rear being one or two dot. I suppose it would be the best of both worlds, blacked out rear for daytime and simply put one dot on top of the other for night. Does it pretty much shoot like the stock sights? I already put one set of Truglo night sights on this and it shot about 2" low at 15 feet, and dont want to waste a bunch of money on more sights that dont work. Thank you

Zardos- it’s shoots POA for me. It’ll present you with a heinie straight 8 like sight picture if you are familiar with that.  Just put 1 dot on top of the other.

As stated my current preference is for something bolder and nothing on the rear sight, but this certainly works for me- it’s just not as quick for my aging eyes.

CZC was very quick with all the sight purchases I’ve made with them, so work with them with confidence

Tanners Owner- I have purchased from CZC many time and they are always great. Thanks for all the replies. After much consideration I am going this route, not my video.

Does anyone know if the CZC Front FO sights have a recess for the FO bulb to fit inside of like the Dawson's? The photos on the CZC website are terrible. It's hard to tell. Thanks.

If you mean a slot that runs the length of the sight then yes the CZC FO sights I have are made that way.
