    Replacing Tritium Sights

    I just bought an old FN Hi Power with Novak sights. The front sight is Tritium but it is worn out.

    Can the tritium be replaced or would I need to replace the front sight?

    Alternatively, can I paint over the tritium? I am just going to use this gun for practice so I really do not need tritium sights on it.

    Yes, you can paint over it. The vials can be replaced, but its much more money and work that just replacing the sight.

    They've done a couple pistols for me. 1st class work and pretty good turnaround.

    Thanks. I think I will try painting over it since all I am going to use this gun for is practicing.
