Very nice sight and trigger Todd! You do very good work. Looks like a factory job. Would you consider making them for us on here??

Sean, if and when I figure out what the dovetail cut is I might make a few extra. I only have a 60 degree cutter but the dovetail is some other angle. I ruined two, and wasted several hours just to get one right. I think it's a 65 degree angle but unless I know for sure I won't spend the $$ just to see. They're about triple the price of a 60 degree cutter.
