I have been looking at the Dawson Comp sights for my G19. Black rear and FO front.
I watched a install video from him and as soon as he broke out the file, I was a bit hesitant on doing this myself. I actually took my slide to the fun show this past weekend and found a couple people who did work on glocks.
The first didn't sell the Dawson sights, only TruGlo, I think, and the 2nd was the same except he made the comment that he doesn't install any sights that require fitting.
This gave me pause because if this guy who does this alot is saying this.....well, then that didn't sounds good for me doing it.
Are most of you attempting this install yourself (and if so, how did it go) or are you just taking these to a smith for install? Is the fitting worth it and might it be better to just find something that pushes right in without too much fight?
