How to mount sight?
Posted: 11 Feb 2017 18:00
OK, got my 2 custom barrels from MGM before the People's Republic of Kali will let me have the gun (pick it up Monday), so they don't have sights.
Because I squeak when I walk, I prefer iron over glass. Have 2 Williams target knob FP-TC's and at this point a Marbles Shorty ramp with .875 contour. The contour fits the .810 barrels pretty darn good. I do have to send the barrels back for front drill/tap that was missed.
My question is about fitting the Lyman #17 globe to the ramp. there is enough play that it slides tight in (not through) and obviously won't work like that.
So am I correct in wanting to proceed by striking dimples with a punch either on the ramp dovetail flat, the globe dovetail bevels, or both?
