I bought a new MR BFR revolver in 44 Mag 5 inch barrel last month . The gun look good and look to be very well built . After shooting it the first day I found the front sight to high and It shot 6 inches low at 25 yards .
I called Magnum Research the next day and spoke to a Tech /info guy .
I was told if I bought a Millet rear sight I would have enough adjustment .
When I received the sight (from MR)I found milling necessary to install . One more call to the Tech and I sent the revolver back to MR for the work .
Yesterday I got the BFR back after close to 3 weeks and found the notch in the rear sight way to small . The front Sight is .130 wide the rear was .030 wide . No way could I see the target around the front sight .
So I look for a new sight blade and find that Millet is no longer in bizz .
No one has just the blade luckily I found a friend with parts and have it fixed ..
How could a so called gunsmith do this ? The smith sent a note saying the gun shot to point of aim now . So I know he had to see this .
