Dawson Rear Sight Set Screw
Any have the correct size set screw for a rear Dawson sight on a P320. Mine is MIA. I called Dawson and was directed to buy a service kit, $7.95 plus $7.95 shipping, seems a little much for a set screw. The tech didn't give the size just the part number. Good salesmanship, I guess. Or maybe he didn't know? The sight isn't going anywhere, just my OCD or what ever you call it. McMaster has about every size at $8.00 for 50 but not knowing the size. TIA for any tech.

I don't know if I'd call that salesmanship. How much money do you think Dawson is making off that $7.95 sale?

I'm guessing it's less than $7.95.

I don't think the salesman ran into Mr Dawson's office yelling "we sold a screw! we sold a screw!"

I think I'd just pay the money and be sure I get the correct screw.

Obviously how you play this is up to you.

Is it a supressor-height rear sight? If so, I have a spare you can have from a buggered up install...shoot me an email with your address and it's yours.

If it's not suppressor height let me know. I think I have a few unused Dawson's rear sights laying around.

I'd be willing to mail a screw as well.
