I really found it irksome that something as simple as replacing the sights would be near impossible on one of the more expensive items in the product line. In the end I sold it and replaced it with a Colt National Match.

BTW for the record, I do not believe the external extractor on the 1911 marks the end of western civilization.

I agree with the sights and sight cut. I ended up with a Dawson fiber optic front sight and retained the factory rear. Much better for my eyes.
