When I installed a c&s rear sight on my m66 it shot to the right as well. The rear sight was also a bit narrow for my tastes. Perfect. I filed one side untill it shot poa and the rear sight had the perfect amount of light on each side.

I broke the budget picking up a 327NG years ago thinking I would not see another anytime soon. The factory action is quite sweet. It’s a great revolver but I would prefer a 3” bbl. The 315 version would be definitely more practically sized for EDC. I enjoy the 327NG and always get a kick out of opening the cylinder and seeing all of those chambers.
I have the 7-shot 386 NG. I sent the cylinder to TK Custon so now it feeds on Moonclips. Also replaced the fixed rear sight, which didn't shoot to point of aim, to a standard S&W rear.
Since the picture was taken I rounded the corners of a new, plain black rear blade and added an Apex Tactical DAO hammer.
I think the 315 NG would be a dandy carry gun but the prices I see keep me stuck with the 386.

I really like the "Chopper" guns that Tiger McKee has been building, but I have no interest in the expense. But I do have interest in a 3", LW frame, round butt, XS front sight, rust resistant finish, no stupid lock, K frame. So I sent S&W an email requesting one, hopefully they'll listen.
Out of curiosity what is the ballpark on one of those McKee builds? They look interesting for sure.
$1K on your gun. I’m more interested in a ~$7-800 factory gun.
12-5!
I would be happy with a 3” K sized six shot Centennial type enclosed hammer if S&W is still too skeered to produce a hammer gun sans ILS...
