I have a Tisas Stingray 9mm that shoots a bit low and left of center. Not by much, but I might consider a adjustable rear replacement if one were made that fits the Tisas dovetail. I have been looking around and do not see any, which I consider strange because Tisas is flooding the market.

Anybody know of any companies that make aftermarket adjustable sights for Tisas?

I too would be interested in one . I have a 5in 9mm/38super , and with my eyes I need an adjustable rear . Wondering if we got one , if BMCM could modify the dovetail to fit whatever one we bought . I'm sure it's within the realm of his capabilities , the man's an artist .
 
Some of the pictures of the Tisas Stingray have what appears to be a Novak-type rear sight cut. I bought one of the .45 stainless Tisas spare slides with a Novak-type slide, with the intention to replace it with an adjustable rear, and use the modified slide on a Tisas pistol with GI sights Novak does not make a fully adjustable rear sight. LPA & Kensight do, but the dovetail they use is not the same as that used by Novak or Tisas. Also, the Tisas rear is excruciatingly hard to move out of its dovetail, not moving with a pusher, not moving after Kroil, not moving after lots of heat, only pushing after I Dremeled it in half through the dovetail.

I went with the LPA: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08259RS3P/ref=pe_386300_440135490_TE_simp_item_image
The LPA dovetail took some filing, before it would push into the Tisas slide.

I used brass blue maskingtape & shim-stock to guard the sides of the slide while pushing, as well as while Dremelling. I am very pleased with the result. I did not change the front sight, and the pistol shoots to point of aim at 50 feet.

I had the sight pusher beforehand. Knowing now how hard that rear sight was to remove (yes, I first took out the retention screw), things could very easily gone wrong cosmetically with the slide, and I would not have messed with it.
