Found mine at my LGS.  He took it in on trade.  Money is on it never being fired.  Even had a new set of VZ grips on it. ;D

I'll be replacing the sights on my T-120 this week with the set offered by Cajun.

Make sure the front sight on your T-120 isn't staked like the one on mine. If you have the novak style rear sight, there a good chance your front sight is staked.

Have you received the front sight yet? Was it a dove tail or tenon post?

Front sight was not staked. Usual CZ 75 type pin.

Will post pictures later this evening or tomorrow of both front and rear. Also did the barrel bushing from CGW. Have not had a chance to shoot it since these were installed

Mine also has the pinned front sight.  David said it will accept the replacement FO front sight that he sells for the CZ's.  I am going to try some paint first and if I don't like it,  I am going to order the FO front.

I would also like to paint my front sight with fluorescent orange paint--can anyone point me to a good paint,--- on--say, ebay, ect.
I live in the sticks, and all we have close by, (30 miles one way) is wal-mart.
I'm kinda new at this--any suggestions would be appreciated!

Next time you are at Wally World, see if they have fluorescent orange fingernail polish.

Does the orange work better than white on a front sight?

I used orange fluorescent finger nail polish and really like it. Tried white first, but it didn't show up very well on white targets.

Orange glow paint from Hobby Lobby works pretty well too.

Let us know what sights you find to replace the pinned sight.
