5903 rear adjustable sight advice!

[acermanco]

Just welcomed a 5903 to the Family! My question is: It has the Factory adjustable sight (with the wings). The sights are night sights that have long gone dim. Can I replace just the blade in the rear sight? and, where could I find a front sight?

You have a couple of options.

The sights are probably Trijicons, so you could send the whole slide off to Trijicon for relamping.

Not very expensive.

Go to their website for instructions.

You can replace only the rear blade, but you will also need to buy a new windage nut and screw.

The non-illuminated sights (front and rear) are sold by S&W or one of the retailers like Midway, Brownells, or Numrich.
