Title: HSc 380 Tritium sights
Post by: Boeller on August 21, 2023, 02:01:22 AM

I have an HSc 380 1977 1 of 5000.  Do y’all have any recommendations for tritium night sights.  My intent is to use it for EDC.  I realize that reloading would be difficult in a tactical situation, but, if I need more than 8 rounds in a EDC situation, I’m toast anyway.

These are quite collectable.


If you want to butcher a HSc, I would recommend finding something else.

To start off, neither Trijicon, TRUGLO or Meprolight make night sights for the HSc.


Additionally, if you were to find a set, only the rear sight is dovetailed into the slide. The front sight is integral to the slide. You would have to find a custom maker to drill the front sight and install a tritium ampule, and I don’t believe there’s enough depth to do so.


The job, if possible would probably cost more tan the value of the pistol while ruining its collector value as Vlim has alluded.
