I have a Ruger Officer’s that has Novak three dot sights. I’d like to swap them out with an orange tritium front and a plain black serrated rear. Novak offers this, but they switched over to Night Fision as a tritium supplier - I’ve had bad luck with them.

What else is out there for Novak pattern sight manufacturers? I’ve been in the Glock world for so long I don’t know what’s out there anymore.

Thanks!

Did you look at Novaks ?

First place I looked, as I mentioned in my post they are using Night Fision for their tritium which I really don’t like. Plus he doesn’t do a serrated rear for this application that I can see on the website.

I’m thinking doing this in two parts: order this Wilson rear, and then shoot it with the stock front to determine what height I need.

I reached out to Wilson about suggested sights, and they advised me they don’t do a correct sized front but gave me advice on a rear. Ordered.

I’m in the process of changing out sights. Got a Harrison Designs rear, then throwing a front sight from Kensight on. They have various cuts, widths, and high-vis like HD sights. Not sure of their tritium supplier though.

I'm not sure if the height is right for the rear you want, but here is an option:

Good info, thanks. The plan is to mount the Wilson rear and shoot it with the factory front to see what height I need. That’s a definite option.
