Just Curious ~ Who Makes This Rear Sight?

QKShooter · August 16th, 2006, 09:50 PM

New One On Me.

It's sort of a neat idea.
It's an adjustable rear sight that fits right into a Novak standard rear sight slide cut...without any further modifications to the slide.
Looks pretty well done and quite solid for its size.
Adjustable for both W & E.
It was for sale on Ebay and I used the "Ask Seller A Question" feature but, have not received any answer.
Sorry about the picture quality but, they were Ebay auction photos and I did not take the pictures.

It's sort of a take off on what MMC Miniature Machine Company did in making a tiny, precision Adjustable Rear for the standard 1911 Colt rear dovetail.

That looks like the STI TAS rear sight.

Maybe that's an older version of the sight since the ones available now are serrated?

Sure does look exactly like it. Almost.

Funny though the one on Ebay has no rear serrations.

Agreed possibly an earlier version of same.

No Matter since I like the later STI version much better.
Information & Link Much Appreciated.

I'm not really up on anything STI & there is So Much "stuff" out there these days.
Thanks Again!
