Dovetail.

Graham, the "Dovetail" standard sights are removable/replaceable.

Yes these sights are readily changeable, and there are many different replacement types available. Suggest you visit Dawson Precision Sights web site where you'll find many options, are reasonable prices. And if you have questions, their support/customer assistance is top notch. It's been my source for sights for years, especially 1911 sights. Then get a competent gunsmith to switch the sights for you, unless you have experience doing so. Without the proper tools, and knowledge, changing a set of sights can quickly become a major undertaking.

Yes you can change or remove the sites
