My son has a Para-Ord 1911 that shoots high. we're looking to replace the front sight with a shorter sight (can't mill off the current front, because it would get into the green dot).
He'd be happy with a simple black sight, but we don't know what to order.
I've heard that different 1911's have different sight cuts - hence the question.

PS - Are sight heights measured from the very bottom of the dovetail, or where?

I've always been a curmudgeon - now I'm an old curmudgeon.
