I've just picked up a Colt Special Combat Government, a Colt "Custom Shop" gun, and would like to change the front sight for one with a fiber optic.
I called Colt and was told they don't give out that information.
I called Dawson Precision (from whom I have bought other f-o fronts) and they didn't know what size dovetail to sell me.
Would anyone happen to know, offhand?
Thanks
Bill

drive it out{existing site} and measure the base width{frt to back}, trace the bottom to side angle, extend them with a straight edge and lay a protractor over them, you should come up with something like [email protected] x.350-.450
