Steve at Bullseye Shooters in Elizabethtown will hook you up. I go to him for everything I need and he is absolutely amazing when it comes to his gunsmithing knowledge and abilities.
His shop is located on Market Street (PA 230) across from the Kmart in Elizabethtown.
You could try Trop, Bullseye never gave me a call back ...
I always seem to have a hard time actually reaching Steve by phone. Stop in his shop. That's what I do.
As far as Trop is concerned, screw everything about that place. Their prices, their staff, their attitude... All of it is about as sour as milk in the sun. It sits in your stomach about just as well, too.
I have called Trop about this and they told me it would need to go to the factory...I was surprised because another small gun shop told me I could probably do it myself and just push out the old sights and push in the new sights by hand.
Those are two extremely opposite opinions on how to get this done. I thought I could probably do it myself exercising care, but when the Trop told me they can't do it, I figured there is no way I could do it myself if they can't even do it.
Never thought it would be this difficult to change the sights.
What kind of handgun is it? I have just stooped in at Bullseye at least three different occasions and he just took out or put on sights for me right there on the spot... I have never been told a gun has to go bak to factory for sight installation or removal.
M&P.
Also have an XDm and Trop said that needs to go to factory also.
