Re: sending PT24/7 back to Taurus for work
I think you will find that
(1) what you are describing is pretty true of most of the Heine sights... and here is what the folks at Heine are saying... "Taurus 24/7 Pistol Sights. Taurus is using sights, which were designed by Richard Heinie specifically for the Taurus 24/7 Pistol. Taurus manufactures the sight under a license agreement with Richard Heinie and Heinie Specialty Products, Inc. These sights are designed to be used as follows: Point of Aim Point of Impact, at 20-25 yards. In simple terms, Dead On. These are not designed to be used with a six o'clock hold. Richard has personally tested several Taurus 24/7 Pistols in 9MM, 40S&W and 45ACP...each of these pistols have performed as stated above. If you are shooting low, be sure you are using the correct hold and that you are not pulling the pistol down during the trigger stroke. Heinie Specialty Products, Inc. does not have replacement sights for the Taurus 24/7 Pistols. At this time we do not have night sights for these pistols. If you have a problem with the Taurus 24/7 Pistol or the sights, please contact Taurus Customer Service.
(2) No one is making "replacement" sights for the Taurus dovetail, but
(3) if you will note the smithing section, you will notice how others have been modifying sights for the 1911 and Hi-Power to fit the Taurus.
Good Luck!
