New Novak Sights on Mdl 5906
The Mdl 5906 (SN VZD2XXX) now has new Novak Low-Mount front and rear sights with white dots! These replaced the original low-mount style night sights that were smaller, long dead, and slightly yellowed. The old sights also had a slight smaller aperture. They were not bad, but not so easy to see.
The work was done by Novak’s in Parkersburg, WV.
This was a good way to update a 3rd Gen S&W pistol that had older, smaller sights. Novak’s previously upgraded the old/very small slights on my Mdl 915, and they did that job equally well. (Now the 915 and the 5906 have the same sights, standardizing my full-size 3rd Gen pistols).
Below: Old sights on the left; new sights to the right.
