I'm interested in mounting a small reflex sight to my S&W 625, for plinking, target , pin , whatever. I just think it'd be fun to use.
So, who makes a good, durable, compact reflex or red-dot sight, and what's a good mount for an N-Frame?
Secondly, I've got a crazy idea. The hooplah these days is mounting a light on your pistol. Revolvers aren't really conductive to this, as nothing is available for them. (Though, I don't think it'd be too hard to make one with a rail on the underlug; you'd have to use the cord instead of the buttons on the light, though.)
So, how about this, for the guy who wants a wheelgun but absolutley has to have a light mount: You find a rugged, bright flashlight with a 1" diameter body, right? Then, you use a see-through scope ring, that leaves the iron sights in place, and mount the light in a 1" ring to the top of the weapon. Any barrel 4" and over would probably cast a shadow, but you'd have your illuminator should you need it.
Plus, heh, unlike mounting lights on, say, Colt clones and Sigs, you'd be able to find holsters easily. Any revolver holster that'd fit a scoped gun would work.
Just a thought.
