Will these be back in stock soon? Tried to order tonight and was denied

Also need a Dawson Fiber Optic sight in .100 which was out of stock. Am I right in that the difference in size for the Dawsons is for the width of the blade itself not the diameter of the Fiber optic?

Thanks.

Correct on the front sights. As for the holsters, I hope to get our next batch in a week or so. Blade-Tech is running slow still, so I should have them no later than mid-May. This batch will include Tek-Loks.

Sorry for the delay.

Ouch. Don't know if I can wait that long. How about the Dawsons? Will they be in this week?

**Old School** · 04-27-2005, 07:51 AM

Not likely. Dawson, like Blade-Tech, are running behind. Dawson has been banging out Glock sights and have nothing ready on the XD front.

Sorry.

Arrrrgghhh!!! I have to spend this money before I do something stupid like pay bills with it!!!!!!! How much of a visible difference is there really between the .100 and .125 blades??? Can you still see light on either side with the stock rear sights? or with the Dawson Adj. Rear Sights?

Thanks.

**Old School** · 04-27-2005, 08:50 AM

The .125 fronts are as wide as the opening on the rear, so there is no daylight. If you want to see the target on the left and right of the blade, you need a .100 front.

Appreciate your swift answers Scott. I called Dawson and they have the .100's in stock and can get it out to me tomorrow. I would have preferred to give you the sale but I'm so terribly inpatient. Bladetech is another story though. Their site warns it could be six weeks before its ready to ship. I'll wait for you on that one.

Another question if you don't mind. Based on your experience what would be the advantage of the Bomar Low Mounts vs. the DP Adjustable rear site? I'm looking for a convincing argument to do the Bomars on another Tactical.

Thanks.

Dawson just sent me a notice that our order of front sights shipped today. How quickly things change.

As for the Bo-Mar comparison, it comes down to personal preference. In the end, if you don't mind having your slide milled out and the sight welded on, the Bo-Mar is a great choice. I like the Dawson option because I am not ready to commit to that level yet.

Any word on the Bladetech's yet? I'm getting desperate. I may have to go for a Comp-Tac belt holster. I saw one at the club the other day and they seem as good a quality as the Bladetech.

Comp-Tac also makes a very nice holster. When I return to the office tomorrow, I will give BT a call and get another status. Sorry for the delay.
