Default Adjustable Rear Sight for 1076

Is there an adjustable rear sight available for the 1076?

I really like the Ken Sight DS, which has the Novak profile (that matches the 1076's factory sight), but it is adjustable, allowing me to change my windage and especially elevation. But it doesn't seem to work for the 1076.

With 10mm, which can range from 40 S&W practically to .41 Mag, my POI can change by a foot or more at 25 yards!

Those are nice. Does anybody have a picture of one installed on a 3rd Gen?

Have you tried Novaks? I have a set of their adjustable sights on a 6906 and they are great.

Millet used to make adjustable sights for gen 3 guns. Still available on the secondary market. Does require a matching front sight, which the LPA does not. I have a set on my 4566TSW. I frankly like the LPA better.

I have the standard profile 3 dot version of the LPA adjustable sight from PSI on my 1066. It had night sights stock and shot a good foot or better low with the stock Novacs at 15 yards. Love this sight and she is spot on now! They look great and are quite stable.

Mine came on the gun when I bought it & I was concerned about them being properly regulated. Before I shoot it the first time I set the vertical adjustment in the middle (12 up from fully down) of it's range. Only needed to go a few more clicks up, to zero it, which leaves about 8 clicks up & 15 down, so that made me happy.
