That's an easy pass with the mill, but I wonder what the radius of the rear end of the sight base is? You have to have a mill bit to match to make it seamless. That's not a big thing if you have it.It can be seamlessly installed by a competent machinist.
Joe L. said:On a side note, I installed a similar green dot on my GP-100 a few years ago......Ruger's plunger system to install the front sight seems a million times better than a tiny roll pin....but that's just me.
You might want to discuss that with experienced shooters from all over the world. Every record ever shot in IHMSA silhouette was shot with black on black. Revolver makers of noted fame such as Bill Davis all sold premium custom built handguns with black on black sights. Fiber optics are good for small game hunting at closer ranges. They are not precision sights by any means.Black on black sights against a black bullseye, are no shooters friend, especially as eye-balls age.
I'm still alive and I've shot with the best shooters in the world. You need to take the time to read the post. He didn't say he was going to use his gun for bullseye. He's talking about woods walking and hunting. Just to be clear, I know a lot of world class shooters who are still alive. In fact, I shot with them for years. I've set a few records myself for precision handgun shooting that still stand. I don't care what your customers are telling you about bullseye shooting, that wasn't the question. READ THE POST. You're not going to find any precision handgun shooter who's any good that fiber optic sights are the way to go. In fact, most top shooters actually blacken their sights up before shooting for score. They either use a spray can of blackener or a carbide lighter to smoke them. I've never seen even ONE use fiber optic sights when shooting for groups. READ THE POST AGAIN.I've discussed it thoroughly with my customers and some exceptional bullseye practitioners, real ones. And they agree with me. As folks who shoot, age, they prefer a brighter front sight. Good shooters, that is.
Maybe you should discuss that with some shooters who are still alive.
