Sights are low mount Champion Adjustable rear Tritium, and dovetail front Trit.

While fitting these to the slide should they be slip fit or press fit?

I see a few milling instructions form several different sources, but they don't mention if you should use s press to install or they sould slip in and hold with the two set screws (in the rear sight).

My champion front site also didn't come with a roll pin should I red LOCTITE it?

Thanks.

The sites should require pressure to mount. Press or brass, plastic punch to move into dovetail(s). Loctite won't help unless there is also a decent level of interference. The stuff is anaerobic & only cures properly without oxygen. Are they loose?
