Night sight for my CZ Shadow Viper!?
Hey guys,
I had a Mamba in my hands and I loved the sights very much.
So I want to have some night sights for my long 6" Viper too.
What are the options and what will fit the gun?
Could need some advice.
Thanx.
Note to other readers - the "Mamba" and "Viper" are terms for custom models sold in Germany. AFAIK, neither term is used anywhere else.
I would expect that the Viper is simply what we in the States would refer to as a "Shadow LS" (for long-slide) - a TS upper mated to a SP-01 Shadow lower. CZC has done a few of them.
TS sight options are very, very limited. For rears, you basically have the adjustable LPAs (black/white-dot/white-outline), the adjustable Champion/Kensight (black-rounded/black-beveled/white-dot-beveled), and the factory fixed. With an adjustable, you may be able to get away with various aftermarket fronts - you'd just have to check the numbers to see if there's enough adjustment to zero it still. With a fixed rear, pretty much your only option that I am aware of is the factory black front. There might be a FO front available in a tall enough height, from CZUB or CZC.
(Also, is the Viper truly a one-off 6" gun? The TS is the longest barrel CZ normally uses, and it's only a bit over 5".)
