snubby night sights

[Jefs]

I've a 2 1/4" and a 3" .357 mag Ruger SP-101 (and will soon pick up a 3" GP100) and I'd like to know if anyone can suggest a good tritium front sight (the rear sights are built into the guns). I've just starting shooting .357 revolvers and really enjoy it, but really miss the night sights on my glocks.

Trijicon front sight

I did a Yahoo search for you, and came up with the Department Services website listing, www.deptservices.com/Night_Sights.htm and they listed a Trijicon model TJ-RR14 front sight for the SP101. Price $41.60. That might fill your bill?
I used the phrase "revolver night sights" to search.

Tom2, thanks for the pointer. I also dug up the Big Dot Tritium ( http://www.xssights.com/detail.lasso?id=12592468 ). Hmm, I don't recall seeing too many pics on this forum of snubbies/revolvers carrying night sights, so I'm starting to think revolver folks don't use them much. Am I right about this? With glocks, the first thing many of us do is get the fixed plastic sights removed and a set of night sights installed, but I'm so new to revolvers that I don't know if this happens much with wheelguns. Can anyone provide advice/guidance/explanation concerning the use of night sights on revolvers?
