Sidetrack but what model S&W is that top revolver?
I have a 340 and 442 with Bowen sights. 340 is pinned on, and I don't have the 442 with me.
My 442 is pinned.
What grips are on that gun? I need something on the backstrap just like the one shown.
Best J-frame grips I've ever used, even without the laser.
Back on topic, I've always wondered why S&W didn't offer some kind of better sights as a standard option on the J-frame snubs. Even building up 1/8" more metal on top of the frame to allow for a deeper notch would help.

I noticed this 640 with novak style sights on the S&W website - now if they would only do the same thing but on a 442 or 642

Why the hell didn't they blend the frame and ejector shroud? It looks like crap. I like the idea though. Maybe I need to send my Model 40 off to Heirloom Precision for some sights.
I think the picture in S&W's catalog is either a prototype or a photoshop.
I have a 640 Pro and it's blended very well.

That's good - I though someone at S&W had gone blind...
