The question is more about the cost of installation, not necessarily the sights themselves. At $135 for the Ledge Straight 8s, they are already more expensive than a lot of the other options out there, but they are the best sights I've used to date. I think they are worth the money. The problem is that Heinie wants $67 to install them. I also would have to pay for shipping. The idea of spending $210 on sights for a gun that cost me $500 just isn't sitting well with me.
Are these sights any more difficult to install than other sights? Ideally, I'd like to find a gunsmith that would install them for no more than $20. Am I asking too much here?
If it's going to cost me any more than that, I'm thinking about investing in a sight pusher and just doing it myself. Is it tough to install sights? Never done it before so I wouldn't know. What sight pusher/tools are recommended for a Glock? Do I need to have a bench vise to do it properly?
Thanks in advance!
