Timothy, not easily, milling will be required as the FX 1911 features sights that are faithful reproductions of those seen on government-issue 1911s. Shooters who are looking at this pistol with the intent to upgrade the sights should be warned – Novak and Bomar style sights will require milling the slide to fit.
