If they were factory sights, they were most likely Trijicon vials. A picture would be helpful.

Trijicon sights usually have a two digit date also as seen in the generic pic - factory Novak sights may not be marked in this manner but again will most likely have Trijicon vials. I have occasionally seen Meprolight sights marked with just "H3" as stated. If that is the case, they cannot be relamped.

Are we discussing fixed pre-Novak, Novak or adjustable sights?
