I have gotten the green light from the family comptroller (she who must be obeyed) to get a P32. I was hoping to have sights installed by Innovative Arms, but they have "temporarily" (for the past 6 months or so) stopped doing sight mods. Is there anyone else who does such a mod?

Alternatively, I might try to find a Laserlyte side mount (which they ALSO discontinued) for it.

Thanks.

Don't need no ugly sights that will snag on the draw from pocket. Same with a laser .Why? This is a close up 0 to say 30' pocket, SD pistol. Practice 1 hand point shooting and you will be surprised at results . Lot of BG's have been shot since the late 1800's by pistols that we consider today to have terrible sights. Seecamp has no sights. Larry has sold many many of them . Practice a little and you will be fine .

That, more than anything, is the key. Practice makes perfect.

Looks like they do make a crimson trace laser for the P-32, I recommend you go that route rather then an ArmaLaser.

http://www.crimsontrace.com/01-2040

The ArmaLaser seems to be a reasonable good quality but the activation method is problematic. I can get mine to work "most of the time" I have a P11 that I bought used from a member here and it came with the ArmaLaser installed. When I hand the gun to my wife and tell her how to activate the laser she can not do it reliably.

I am going to start looking for a crimson trace laser for my P11 due to this because when the laser "comes on" my wife likes it but when she raises the gun to firing position it shifts her grip and the laser "goes out" and this is not cutting it.

If you do want regular sights why not try and find a good gunsmith to will take a set of metal sights the right width and silver solder them on for you. You could even get night sights this way, you would simply have to silver solder the sights on then insert the tritium tubes in to the sights and glue them so they don't fall out.

For even a half decent gunsmith this should not be that hard. Find metal sights you like, but with removable plastic inserts, sand the bottom to fit your gun, remove plastic inserts and solder to the slide. Test fire it to make sure it shoots straight.

After it shoots good enough for you bring it back to the gunsmith and have him finish blue it and insert some tritium inserts and your rockin it.

If your gunsmith does not know where to get tritium inserts, send me a PM and I can give you several sources for them.

To get the tritium night sights it is just a matter of making some tiny plastic tubes the right size, child's play for some one with a small lathe, then insert tritium vials, insert into sights, glue them in and you got the coolest P-32 around.

Thanks for all the suggestions. I have bid on a Laserlyte side mount laser I found.
I also will try painting the sights with some enamel. Pistol should get here on Monday. Can't wait to play with it at the range.
