HiTS Defensive Revolver

I would guess that Ted did.

Thx. They look very similar to Spegel Boot style with no finger "bump". Nice

So in a very retro move at the First Spear SHOT Range Day on 01/22/2018, I took the HiTS Revolver with me for a little diversion from the AR world. I was assisted by co-worker James "Bubba" Rawl, a repeat Governor's 20 PPC shooter from SC and we sent 150 rounds from this neat revolver downrange. The closest target available was a 1/2 IPSC steel at 95 lasered yards and the next one was a Pepper Popper at 125 yards. We tore them up. I didn't keep count, but we conservatively hit 80-85% of our shots and it got so easy, we both started doing it one-handed! The gun shoots lights out!

I KNEW it!

I just knew after Wayne said he'd be wearing a suit at SHOT, that an elegant wheelgun would inspire drooling from the truly knowledgeable.

Ted's gun (NYSP marked 681) that was featured in a magazine was for sale on another site last week. it was listed at $3600 and is now SPF

Neither the gun nor the photo are as nice, but this is what a 681 with Spegel Boot Plus grips without the finger bump looks like:

So, it's been a year and a half. Has anyone else done anything similar?

How have these been shooting?

Mine got new shoes fitted by Ted and then got pregnant and had a baby....

I just read (and looked) through this two year thread. Those sights are absolutely the best solution to S&Ws poorly designed fixed sights. They should be ashamed. Would that that kind of front and rear sights were available without going to a back-logged custom gunsmith. I had a 681 that I kept trying to fix the sights on. I finally gave up and traded it off on something else. This would have been perfect.

And.....I still have the 681 😎. But yeah, these sights are awesome.
