    Umerex/Walther 1911 Goldcup rear sights

    Dawson precision has fiber-optic front sights for the Gold Cup. Does anyone make a replacement rear adjustable sight? An old pot suggested that the slide has a Bomar cut ... wrong! The cut is similiar but a Bomar sight will not fit.Jack

    Can you post a picture? If it looks like a Bomar but a bomar-cut sight won't fit, it may very likely have an 'LPA-cut' rear adjustable. Kimber, Para and others use them, so Dawson sell them.
    Too many people miss the silver lining because they're expecting gold.

    Thanks for the reply.

    Spoken with Dawson yesterday. Fellow there said that this is a special cut and that they had nothing that would fit.

    I recall reading somewhere that it is an airgun sight.

    I completely disassembled last night. Root of the problem is that the parts are cast aluminum and not machined steel.

    Will try to post a pic ... can't figure out how to from my phone.
