You tried the UK distributor Edgar Brothers? Drop them an email & if available your local RFD will be able to order it for you.adiepie wrote:Hi

Re: GSG 1911
Grab yourself some proper 1911 adjustable ones. The dovetail in the slide on the GSG is what's known as a "Novak" cut. Brownells gave them.
In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?

Yes thanks, £10 plus delivery for EACH of the front posts, or £24 for the set of five!Activ8 wrote:You tried the UK distributor Edgar Brothers? Drop them an email & if available your local RFD will be able to order it for you.adiepie wrote:Hi

Re: GSG 1911
+1 for this... I put a Novak adjustable on mine... it was "tight " fit, and I actually had to take a fine file to the dovetail to get it to go in.Sim G wrote:Grab yourself some proper 1911 adjustable ones. The dovetail in the slide on the GSG is what's known as a "Novak" cut. Brownells gave them.
Re: GSG 1911
I have read that the "Kimber" cut is close to the GSG but not much offered compared to the Novak cut. And really, you should use Emory paper on the sight, rather than take active to the dovetail.

I'm starting to fine that everything on 1911's needs to be fitted and nothing is drop in. Ah, the fun of old fashioned guns

Are they really that bad ?? The ones on the GSG that I looked at, a recent batch I believe, seems to be ok for the job. Let's be honnest this thing is hardly a match pistol awyway ?

Re: GSG 1911
They're pretty cheap and cheerful (crap) imo. Ordered some new ones from Brownells UK thanks to the info in this thread.
