I want to change my kahr sights to night sights. The front sight looks pretty darn easy to install. Break it off and just screw on the sight. No idea how to install the rear sight. I just might leave it be.

Which model of gun do you have? It makes a difference on how the front sight is installed...

leave the rear sight alone, all u need is that front sight. In a SHTF situtation ur gonna be damn lucky if u even see the front sight, let alone trying to line up the back sight, front sight and BG. Just ain't gonna happen. Think about it..

The front is really easy, the rear not so much.

Though I have both and CT lasergrip just a front dot at close range is quite enough. The sights aren't really that bright and intended for true low light situations. The laser OTOH really shows at even bright indoor lighting.

I want to install a "big-dot" front site on my P-380 to assist my 65 year old eyes. Which direction do I drift the sight out, and the new one in?:o

I believe that it is left to right. Someone will be along in a bit to tell you exactly. (maybe)
