    Default Cost to install sights

    I'd like to have the sights on my sig p365 upgraded to trijicon night sites, the brighter the better. My old 71 year old eyes can no longer shoot expert at 500 yds with an M14.
    How much should it cost to have the new sights installed, aligned, etc?

    Everytime I bought them at a store with a gunsmith they were installed for free.

    Yeah, I got a quote of $35 if i ordered the sites thru the shop, $65 if I brought them in.
    Seems a little high.

    For less than $65, you can buy a sight pusher and do it yourself. Plus side also being that, if they're not aligned properly during the install, you can move the sights yourself until they are properly zeroed.

    I install direct replacement sights for 10.00 AND I do it right before your very eyes.
    I have about 25' to test fire check the alignment of sights. Price for the test fire is based on time spent.

    35 just for a front night sight?

    That’s still overpriced, I bet they don’t give the best price for the sights either. I’d buy them online and do it myself.

    If you like them bright and bold consider looking into the TruGlo TFX PRO tritium fiber optic combo. There should be some comparison videos out there. Once I have them a shot I switched all my carry and defensive guns over. If I could put them in rifles I would.

    Don't confuse these with the older TFO line like many people do.
