I've got a S&W 25-14 .45ACP revolver that I've been using for the local action pistol shoots.
The short sight radius of the 3" inch barrel on the revolver has been mostly offset by the time, I've gained on reloads thanks to the moon clips, compared to the other revolver guys fumbling with speed loaders. I've managed to stay in the top 3 on the last 3 matches, but I'm having a tough time with distant targets due to the wide front ramp sight that's on the revolver.
I've checked Midway and Brownells, but all the replacement front ramps are measured in height, not width. I've got the rear sight worked out on which part I need, but I can't figure out which, if any, of the pinned front ramps may be narrower than the .123" (3.2mm) that's already on the revolver.
Does anybody know where I could find one? Preferably with a red insert, but I can make due fine without one.
I really don't want to try thinning down the existing front sight with a file or india stone, if I can just pin in a replacement.
Thanks.
