You have to tell us how this happened. I’ve never seen this before.
Removal left to right. Kimber sights are known to be a very tight fit.
Any sights for a Kimber 1911 will work. I don’t see any fiber optic sights on their website. You could call Kimber. You can even send them your slide to have them replace.
Dawson Precision sell fiber optic sights if you just want to buy the front sight.

Thanks for the reply. Honestly not sure what happened. I think it might had happened when I tried to use one of those pistol blocks with the built in spot to turn the barrel bushing. Never again. Looked on the dawson site, any idea the height or width of the stock sight.

I really don't know, I would call them for help or use a caliper.

Dawson will help you order the correct front sight if you call or email them. Calling works best.

Talked to CS today, they're sending new sight out, $49.00.

Nothing wrong with putting the original sight back on your gun. Calling Kimber was a good move by you.
