Title: Sight install
Post by: GM4469 on January 08, 2012, 04:19:08 PM
Someone had asked me about sight installs.
Here is just a quick reference. Should work for any of the newer CZs that have the dovetail front sight ( vs the pre B tenon front sight )


Slide installed in vise

Thanks GM. That was really helpful. I got the rear tactical sight you recommended and put it on along with a fiber optic front sight. It went pretty much as you showed but I had to do a bit of filing to make them fit properly. I ended up scratching the new new sights a little but at least they're on!

Nice walk through. Thanks for the post. Now if I can get my hand to stop shaking long enough to hold the drill steady and straight................... :rolleyes:
