Hain’t we got all the fools in town on our side? And ain’t that a big enough majority in any town?
For those who are interested in how to turn a revolver barrel, here's an article by Hamilton Bowen demonstrating how to turn a barrel to adjust point of impact, including pictures of different barrel vises and action wrenches. Link opens to a PDF:

Add in the need to refinish once the front sight is filed.

I like Taffin.
I remember being overseas reading old mags fantasizing about being out in the woods with a sixshooter.

This is a tough crowd. Old school sight adjustment called for clamping the barrel in your bench vice, with some grabby padding of course. Then you just stick a hickory hammer handle (they always specified hickory) through the cylinder window and start turning. This was supposed to work, although I never tried it. Taffin no doubt has, and still does. (smile)
