I ordered 2 sights from Steve's - a Lyman 17AHB and a green fibre optic front sight. The Lyman pushed all the way through by hand and was very loose. The fibre sight fit the Rossi dovetail perfectly.Maj Dad wrote:How good are the fits of Steve's Gunz front sights? I just ordered front and rear sights for my 20" round bbl R92, and I think they should be a relatively good match up. I also ordered some Loctite 271 - didn't feel like paying ~$25 for the bearing locker I have used plain old 242 threadlocker on pistol sights (1911s with front dovetails) with good results. I haven't tried to remove the sights yet, but I have heavy brass punches and heat sources...

At my age, there IS nothing better than shooting.
