Please note that the forums in this category are to be used to ask questions or to show us pistols from these manufacturers. They can also be used to ask questions about the parts of a particular pistol from one of these manufacturers, as long as the question relates to the original parts.

  • If your pistol malfunctions and you want to ask for help on how to troubleshoot it, post your question in the "Gunsmithing and Refinishing" forum, not in this one.
  • If you want to ask questions about after-market parts, these questions should go in the "Parts - Grips" forum, not in the manufacturers forums.
  • If you want to ask questions about after-market magazines, these questions should go in the "Magazines" forum, not in these forums.
  • If you want to ask questions about holsters, those questions should go in the "Holsters" forum, not in these forums.
  • If you want to ask questions about conversion kits, those questions should go in the "Conversion Kits" forum, not these forums.
  • If you want to ask questions about which ammo to use with your pistol, those questions should be posted in the "Ammo" forum, not these forums.

Messages with questions for after-market parts, magazines, holsters, conversion kits, ammo etc. will be moved to the proper forum and a warning will be issued.

Ranger II sight question - Novak Extreme Duty possible?

I've been looking at getting a Ranger II in 9mm (probably from Brazos with the trigger/enhancement package) - but I can't tell if the front and rear sight cuts would accept a set of Novak Extreme Duty tritium adjustables down the line, should I wish to upgrade the sights.

From what I've read the Novak rear works fine, but I can't tell if the front dovetail is correct.

Any knowledge you can share would be appreciated.

The rear should work fine but the front is a different dovetail. The front dovetail is 0.300 wide by 60 degrees by 0.060 deep. The Novak sights are 0.330 by 65 degrees by 0.075.
