Ready to rocknroll!! Installed the new sights today and i LOVE them!
.380" Front sight, Universal rear sight. Both use .375" dovetail and fit like a glove. The rear sight actually has an additional screw that you tighten down on and it locks the rear sight into the dovetail just for added security.
Came with a total of 6 fiber optics that you can swap out. Some look the same color in the picture but theres one thats more of a yellowish color, along with green, red, and orange. I just switched over to the orange optic as my eye adjusted to the darker color.
The Red tab looking deal is kind of a key that you use to press the spring down that holds the fiber optic in place. Very crafty and looks pretty sturdy

"Reddish fiber optic installed here"


The low-left holes were sighting in shots. The shots at the top of the bulls eye and all in a hole are 3 final shots at 60 yards. I still might be a couple inches low at 100 yards but we will see when I get out there.
320gr REAL conicals lubed with spray on Graphite " Just testing this for now" - Lubed wad, 90gr Goex 2F. CCI #11 Magnum Caps.

And here she is in all her beauty!

Yeah she shot under 2 1/2" at 100 yards with 90gr Pyrodex RS, I am hoping the 2f Goex will improve on that. Then again!! That 2 1/2" group at 100 yards was with the original blade sights i struggled to see.

Looks beautyful out today so im going to hopefully get out to the 100 yard range and see how she does. May take a shot at 75 yards first just to make sure everything is where it should be.
