Do what you want, but that's just a badly fitted blade. The front sights of nearly all post-war S&W adjustable-sighted revolvers are set up like that but most have the pins polished so well that you can't see them. Karl Sokol at Chestnut Mountain Sports can fix you right up.

Hard to tell in the pic but that looks like a crack in the sight base to me.
yep, sight base has a hairline fracture
Spent a cold morning going thru this thread. Never gets old. Thought I’d toss in a few. Channeling my “inner Malamute and Lost River”...or attempting to at least.
All the bears have checked into the Holiday Inn Express until March, so the M28 gets to stretch its legs on the back 40.

Those grips look great. I wasn't to crazy about the red maple on my m19 but I think yours are a little browner which looks more natural.Spent a cold morning going thru this thread. Never gets old. Thought I’d toss in a few. Channeling my “inner Malamute and Lost River”...or attempting to at least.

They do have some pretty figure
To all 3 of you :
Those wheel guns are damn sexy.

Gracias.
Are those Ahrends too? I was lucky enough to get a set before he closed the doors.
I’m still on a quest to find some N Frame grips that fit my hand. I tried a set of Eagle Heritage that smack my thumb knuckle during recoil. I tried a set of Altamonts that are too slick (urethane finish) and have the finger grooves in the wrong spot. My latest experiment was a pair of Magnas. I shot those yesterday and they leave something to be desired when shooting anything but mid .38 loads. I’d take a rasp to the Ahrends as I think that with some minor relief behind the trigger guard that may just be the answer...but I’m reluctant since I cannot get another pair anymore.
Oh...the drama...lol
On a side note, I did come to the conclusion I need to get my post-covid ass on the snowshoes a lot more...

The stocks on mine are from Custom Wood, Inc. which shuttered in the eighties. I rasped and sanded a lot of wood off them to clear speedloaders, fit my hands, and avoid squared edges to slam into my elbow.
I vote you rasp until there is no more problem or there are no stocks to have a problem.
I’m Slavic. You’d think I’d have big Slovak hands. Nope. I’m like a Czech princess. Actually big paws, little stubby fingers. Studdabudda.
I don’t think it would take much....
