Yep I Know J.S.I.U, and open the wallet! Now a problem that some of us runs into. Trying to find information on products so we might be able to use a different manufactures part in lue of original .I purchased a walther ppk 380 and want to put on a laser rear sight. Needed to know the width of a glock beaver tail opening so we could have a rear sight laser pressed in. Called the Laser-lite co. and was told it was a trade secret and wouldn't release such information.Found a gunsmith that had the information we needed, so with a micrometer the ppk was a bit narrower in width then the glock which is about the thickness of a playing card. The reason for the rear sight laser is because We are going to change grips from plastic to Rosewood with thumb depression. Beautiful grips. Other wise the laser site would have to be in the plastic grip replacement.Cutting back the rear laser site would be the answer rather then re-grooving the slide assembly on the ppk 380.I can't see where there would be a danger in releasing such specks. That information on trade secrets would be, If I was to manufacture a slide assembly to be sold to any person for the same purpose as I have in mind.Installing a rear laser sight on a ppk 380.No one makes a side grip laser in rose wood. I Know J.S.I.U, and blame Laser-lite for with holding information that can be had by any reputable gun smith.We have E.Mailed most everybody we could think of including S/W, walther, other gum manufactures and no reply. Any one have similar problems? Done ranting. now. LOU
