Ruger Revolver (Security Six) Flyers

I can't be sure from the photos, but it sure looks like the style of front sight Hamilton Bowen installs on many revolvers.

Update,

I took the gun to an actual gunsmith, who diagnosed end float and a damaged crown. He installed a shim and rer-cut the crown. I took it back out with three types of .38 spl ammo. grouping improved but wasn't great. About double the size of the groups from my S&W M-10. Also had the action lock up again as the gun heated up. I returned the gun to the seller with full disclosure for a re-fund / trade in on a P-226.

End shake is pretty common on older Six series guns that have been shot a lot. Just installing a shim won't always fix it. Frequently shimmed 6 series guns will need the forcing cone cut as well.

I really liked the white line and taper of the front sight post. It was the primary reason I rolled the dice on the gun.

I have his front sight on two J frames and a number of N frame revolvers. Like it!
