Hi all!
I have been asked by my brother to do a little research for him, since he can't get internet access at his place. He's got a Ruger P97, and loves it. But he's looking for one or two kinds of accessories for it. I've done some Googling, but haven't found what he's looking for.
First: He wants a "frickin' layy-zer" sight on the grip so's he can get a little red dot with his thumb (we have a cousin with a Sig that has that feature, and my brother thinks very highly of it). I figured Ruger wouldn't be making something like that for the P97, seeing as how changing the grip means completely replacing half the gun. Sure enough, couldn't find anything like it on their site. Does anyone make an aftermarket product that could simulate that sort of thing, like some kind of a sleeve?
Second: He wants glowing night sights. I'm not sure what to tell him there either, because the P97's default sights aren't (at least on his) removeable, so he'd either have to find a very cunning gunsmith, or buy a new slide. But, I'm hardly an expert, so I was hoping maybe one of you could provide a more definitive answer as to whether this is possible or not.
Thanks!
