3D model description

I found this sight over on https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints/69750-glock-guttersnipe-sight and have waited awhile before I shared it here. No matter how much I tried through hand fitting, I could not get the inserts to fit into the sight body, so I modified the file and printed the body with the inserts in place and painted them (file: sight with inserts no block). It printed just fine with tree supports.

Original text from URL:

Description
PDF
A copy of US Patent US3777380A, aka the Guttersnipe Sight, originally designed by Paris Theodore for the ASP pistol. This copy is designed for Glock pistols, primarily for subcompact models such as the Glock: 26, 27, 29, 30, and 33.

This version is mounted via locking block, and has 3D printed inlays of the user's preferred color. (The human eye picks up green as the brightest color during daytime, in case one wishes to go for optimum visual clarity)

Ian McCollum of Forgotten Weapons published a video in 2015 describing the ASP pistol, and the Guttersnipe sight in detail. (Video time: 4min, 57secs)
