If you're going to carry the revolver you put them on I think you'll really like them. Great sights and some of the best snag free sights out there for revolvers. They are a BIG improvement over most factory sights.
It hurts my soul more than a little to see "tactical" lever guns out there but if it has to be done, yours is certainly a fine looking specimen.
I think you will be happy with the sights!I appreciate the info - I'm going to be upgrading the sights on my new Colt and wasn't sure who I was going to go with. Dave Lauck was on my radar after some cursory searching.

He installed new springs, Wild West Guns lever/trigger/follower, and polished everything. The rifle was fine before he worked on it, but came back pretty much perfect to me. Feeds well, super smooth, trigger is about 4 lbs. He lived up here and then moved to AZ.Do you know what all your smith did on the action?
Thanks
Holy cow! I am seriously impressed. He is one of my favorite shooters ever! He was the main influence on me shooting revolvers DA. He and Bob Munden just make me feel like an absolute neophyte!I’m replaced springs and something else for J Miculek ( you can find everything on his website) I did it on 627PC, but anyway DA feels much more better. Just need to adjust the main spring tension after. My DA is 5.2-5.7 lb. Is enough for Federal primers
I know the thread is guns, but I just love that blade.
Open Season…long range and close quarters
Full Noveske rifle? Lower with the mag release is throwing me off
How’s the QD Spuhr mount? Have had a couple regulars and love them but never tried their QD
This is gorgeous. Hear you on the 200gr sub 40s. That can is beastly bro.
I get that and also have a soft spot for the original versions but I really do like the upgrades that have been made to older technology. The new hi vis sites, factory rails, polymer stocks and foregrips, coupled with both tube loading as well as side gate upgrade and the threaded barrel make it a nice breath of fresh air in a modern rifle world. The tried and true are still being made but maybe the updates and accessories will keep levers around and relevant to a new upcoming group of shooters for years to come.It hurts my soul more than a little to see "tactical" lever guns out there but if it has to be done, yours is certainly a fine looking specimen.
Do you know how is calling that scales on your knife? That's looks great!When your knife dwarves your gun..View attachment 2326762
