Personally, I hate shameless sale plugs on sights like this.

Secondly, you say this gun doesn't have any of the "fancy extra doodads"...a the bead blasting (and it better be blasted and not a finish!!!), the "lightweight style" trigger, skeletonized light weight hammer, extended beavertail grip safety, extended oversized thumb safety, oversized sights, with a dovetailed rear (windage adjustable)...yeah, I'm pretty certain you can mark those down as "fancy extra doodads".

Not a terrible looking gun, but I wouldn't give you over $400 for it. I can get a trusted Springfield for little more than that. I'd also NOT be buying one because of the sights. For a night stand gun, it'd be fair, as sight clearance isn't important, but on a "combat gun", low profile sights are important, and for a competition gun, adjustable sights are key....your sights fall in the category of usefullness between these two, where someone who just wants a 1911 and doesn't know why will buy them.
