I HIGHLY recommend this for covering the lock if you want a little larger release. Really looks and feels great.

I already removed the lock and plugged it, but that is pretty nice. I hadn't seen that before.

For sights you could try Dawson Precision, they may not have that exact model listed but a phone call will likely lead to a fit.

I spent a bit looking for aftermarket sights when I first got the gun and didn't come up with much. I'm guessing that there are sights that fit, but they may not specifically be listed as fitting the Competitor model. In my inquiry to S&W CS, I also asked about options for other front sights.

UPDATE: I received an email from S&W Customer Service. I will be sending it back using their prepaid shipping label. They said there are no options for the front sight blade, unless I pay them a lot of money and wait over 3 months for them to do "some work" to it so it can use a shorter front sight blade.

I declined that part.

Enjoy.

My sentiments exactly. .44 is a lot of gun.
