Is there any way to get night sights on my S&W M13, 3" HB. It has fixed sights now. The 50 year old eyes aren't what they used to be...
Thanks
Yes, you'll need to find a gunsmith that will remove the old sights & cut dovetails then install the sights you want. As to who that gunsmith is, I have no idea.

I'd suggest that you might start your quest by checking with Tool Tech (Trijicon), Novak's, Cylinder & Slide and Grant Cunningham-any or all of them might be able to specify what their capabilities/options are.
Best, Jon

This should be a standard job for a competent revolver smith, and not terribly expensive depending on the sights you want.
Off the top of my head Jerry Keefer (http://www.americanpistol.com/guild_member.php?mbrid=31) has done several revolvers for me with quick turn around and great prices.
And Clark Custom Guns (http://www.clarkcustomguns.com/) can do just about anything to a revolver.
Call tool-tech. They are not that expensive. If you can tritium front only it's 100.00.

Laser grips are an option.
Really I think you need to figure out what it is you can see before you start having work done. With me a wide rear notch and narrow front post is working for now.
This work is expensive. You might be better off getting a revolver with the sights you want.
