I needed another shooter with highly visable sights due to my "old" eyes so I decided to have another Sistema rebuilt.
1.) Nighthawk Match Barrel and bushing
Brownell parts I ordered.
2.) 487-201-001AB Kings grip safety

3.) 965-367-003AB Snag free sight 3 dot

4.) 087-867-000AB Series 70 blue BT grip safety

5.) 791-102-001AB Commander tool steel hammer

6.) new firing pin spring (old one broke during test firing.
BEFORE Photo:

AFTER Photo's: Ignore the grips they will be replaced.

To all who responded.
!.) I didn't do the rebuild it was done by a gunsmith out in Arizona
(he did a great job didn't he) I wil be happly to refer you to him if you wish.
2.) on my other rebuild I just couldn't see the front sight even with some yellow sight paint on it. I would lose the sight picture.
3. The new sights on this pistol are great and looks like it will solve my problem. I can't wait to shoot it.

I replaced the grips with the Rosewood and Black rubber grips that were on the pistol before the rebuild. Feels great.

Great, simple, no-nonsensical work! And with the dovetailed front sight you can have another go at it if you wish. Please let us know how it shoots.

Enjoy!

Great job. Those old Sistemas rebuild into a very nice pistol.

WOW! Very nice!!!

Congratulations. I prefer pistols that are meant for shooting as opposed to safe queens.
