Elmer,

Tooltech is the only option I've found so far. Here is what they said last week: "Cost for a Trijicon insert in your front sight is $87.50. Return shipping for the sight is $12.00. Turn around time is about 2 weeks."

It sounds pricey to me. The XS sight is available for the DX at Midway: XS 24/7 Express Sight Set S&W Revolver Interchangable Front Sight Adjustable Rear Steel Blue Tritium Big Dot Front White Stripe Rear

I just don't like the round top of the front sight, and the weird rear sight. Since this would be to make use of the excellent interchangeable sight system, the rear sight would defeat that use. So, if I went with the XS, I would have a rear sight I wouldn't install and a front sight that I'm not sure would work for the factory rear sight.

Sigh...I guess if I want one, I'll send a plain front sight to Tooltech.
