    Hmm, still trying to think about the design. I've seen two rectangular pieces used with bolts on both ends to clamp, but my design is less involved and I would think more universal, since I wouldn't have to worry about slide safeties etc.

    Thanks, and wait, catching up? What catching up? I've been bustin' my balls trying to rack up my post count lol Bustin' your balls? Or burnin' them?



    Dang, less than one days notice, thats pretty shitty of them! Hopefully you're still able to go fishing (afford it that is) and enjoy the transition between your old life and starting a new one.
    BC highlighted something really important here: You've been given the opportunity to transition to something new and it's up to you to make it how you like. If you didn't like your old job, now's the perfect time to start making money doing what you love!

    Yea, we tried that with his pistol and think someone used loctite underneath the dovetail rear site, because we couldn't get it to budge even hitting it pretty hard. There was a tiny set screw that we removed and coulnd't get it to slide at all. Besides, that method isn't all that advisable (from what I've read online) for tritium sights as you can crush the tritium vials.

    Exactly! Granted, I'm a pretty dang good bowler, competed in elementary school...

    Now I normally bowl a 150-175 the first round, and can sometimes crossover 200 if I'm having a good night.

    Hammer/punch is the wrong way. I hope they used blue or lighter Loctite.

    What direction are you punching in?
