I'm new here as well but I thought I'd add the small amount of possibly helpful information I have gathered so far on the sight issue. I bought a 20" round barrel 92 in .357 in December. This is a new Braztech imported model. I added the .570" high Marble front sight with the 1/16" gold bead to go along with their bullseye rear sight. Shot for the first time last week after refinishing the stocks (I'm sure I'm the first one here to try that :lol: ). Setting the rear on the second lowest stop I was dead on at 50 yds.

I'm getting ready to upgrade the front sights on mine and already ordered new sights for a buddy before I got the bug and actually bought my Rossi guns.
I've ordered a Marbles fiber optic for a buddy with the bullseye for the rear on his 16" .357 carbine per his requests.
I lean toward the fiber optic fronts with the factory rear for my 20" .357 RB and 24" .44 Oct.
Picking a height for each has been on my mind.
