So I am going to send my pair of 64-6 4" HB RB K-frame to Mr Sokol soon. I want to provide the front sight, in specific a Dawson Precision NLM FO sight that is .115-.125 wide. My question has to do with height. These heaters will fire the Speer 135gr+P. To anybody that has trimmed a 4" barrel to 3", had a NLM styled sight installed, and shoots the Speer load, what height did you go with? Some say .150, others .160, will it make a huge difference?
Coming from you that's high praise indeed Stephanie B. Thanks.Originally Posted by Stephanie B

Thanks I appreciate it.

It's still shooting a bit low. Front sight is 0.160. only place I can find that has tritium sights is Dawson. How much will each 0.01 adjust the poi? I used to have a sight saved to do the math
Eta, Dawson was that sight.

Likes pretty much everything in every caliber.
Got a 0.130 high fiber optic front sight. I've never really liked FO sights .
We'll see what happens

Still haven't shot with the new sight but here's a better picture.
Not bad but man it looks delicate to me. Could I put some epoxy on it?
I have Dawson fiber optic front sights on several revolvers. Durability has not been an issue. Shoot the snot out of it and report back. Please.
I had mentioned at one point that It was sticking. I took the cylinder apart recently and found the gas ring jacked up. It looks like it was when I was screwing in the 2” barrel and trying to see what worked.
Anyways, cleaned it up and shot it some today with no sticking or issues.
My m66 is down untill the cylinder stop comes in. Glad I've got a back up.
