    Star BM 9mm - replacement/upgrade sights?

    Hello all, I recently purchased a Star BM. My question is, and I realize that I may be over complicating issues, has anyone found an aftermarket rear sight (the front is part of the slide, so without major gunsmithing, not going to change as best as I can tell) that will slide into the rear...

    Has anyone used "Nitesiters," or their co-product "Daysiters" sight dots?

    Hello all, With my aging eyes, it's getting harder to see plain iron sights on my pistols. There are countless ideas for various types of paints, but I came across a stick-on product called "Nitesiters," which are glow in the dark (but you do have to expose them to light) and "Daysiters," which...

    Sight pusher... or not?

    I'm going to be installing new sights on my son's Bersa BP9cc for Christmas. He is upgrading to XS big dot 24x7 night sights, one of the few choices for this pistol. My dilemma is: do I invest in an inexpensive sight pusher i.e. The Fisher Solutions sight pusher, or do I use nylon and aluminum...

    Remington style sights vs Colt style sights

    Since I've yet to shoot an open top Colt replica, I have a few questions for the "more seasoned" shooters here. So, between the two: Which sights do you favor and why? Which do you believe you shoot best with? Which types of shooting do the two sights have an advantage in (i.e. Colt is...

    Sig 1911 Night Sights

    SIG P-250 - The Perfect Handgun

    Okay, I love the Sig P-250. But what's up with the rear sight being integrated with the safety thingy? Does anyone have a reasonable excuse that SIG promotes? Thanks,
