Ruger P345 / Taurus 24/7Pro Help??
I'm looking at getting one of these in .45acp. I'm wondering if any of you guys know if anyone makes adjustable sights for either of these guns? My cousin and myself looked through several of his cataloges tonight and we couldn't find any. He is ffl licensed so he has quite a few cataloges.

I know you cant get adjustible sights for the Taurus but im not sure about the Ruger. I dont have a ruger so i never looked at any parts for them. I have a Taurus PT-111 now and it has Trijjcon Night Sights on it (Not adjustable) and it shoot good. It shoots about 2in high at 15 Yards. Plenty good enough for me.

Not sure about adjustables on these models.
What's it for?
You may only need the adjustable sights if it's for target use.
If it's for defense, you can just find ammo that shoots well and thensimply move the sights once to match it. The rear sights are drift adjustable for windage with a brass punch, and the front ones can be replaced with a different height post for elevation to match your defense ammo of choice.
You can always get a gunsmith to put almost anything on them, but I would prefer a factory install myself that doesn't change the gun's normal dimensions.

Thanks guys, I guess I'm just too picky because it ain't like I'll be in competition or any thing
. I just want it for home defense and fun at the range. I'm probably just gonna go with the Taurus because of the price and just see how it shoots and go from there.

They both are good guns. Some people talk bad about Taurus but ive never had any problems with any of mine. Ive owned 3 and still have 2 of them. I also have a Smith & Wesson SW40VE witch is similar to the Taurus 24/7 but it seemed to fit my hand better. I got my S&W for $320. I like the Taurus pistols and would like to get snother one but im running out of storage room for guns.
