Feets / Collection / My build Norinco 1911 sights

Anyone know if irons for a standard 1911 will work on a norinco with the adjustable rear sight?

More then likely not Norinco uses weird sight cuts

The easiest way new slide or contact a gunsmith to see what they recommend. I ended up sending my Norinco slide off to get milled for a optic mount

Blackbox customs did this for an old para ordnance slide for me. It had no sights when I purchased it and NO idea which brand would fit properly. They fit some nice fiber optic sights too it for me and took all the guess work out. I had lots of other work done on the frame, and cerakote so no idea the price, but cost of sights + labour is usually very reasonable.
