Checked the Novak website and they don't even have Armascor/Rock Island as one of the brand options they put sights on.... :headscratch

Will do. With better sights, this gun would be just about perfect in my book. No need for fancy grip checkering, bells or whistles here. It goes bang everytime i pull the trigger, is accurate, looks pretty, and just feels right in my hand. its a keeper! :thumbs2:

You have made me ashamed. :oops:

I shall order a new holster this very evening.

This might be a good time to sing the virtues of 3" Kimber "summer gun" to your better half. After all, its purpose would be to make sure that she is always properly protected...... :mrgreen:
