I recently picked up a Springfield 1911 (new) with factory installed Novak sights. After 300 rounds or so the rear sight fell off 'cause the set screw hadn't been tightened down and it was held in place with adhesive only. It turns out the screw was frozen in place and I thrashed my allen wrench trying to loosten it. Springfield replaced it, but this one was frozen as well...again they replaced it, but this time the screw was already stripped.
Has anyone else had similar problems with either Novak (bad product) or Springfield (lousy quality control)?
Needless to say I've got a case of the ass because I've been sitting on an otherwise good pistol that might as well be a shotgun for 3 months now.
