Rossi Rifleman

I bought this 24" oct 357 from buds about a year or so ago.
Never fired it, just sat in the corner, until I could make up my mind on what type of sights to install.
I went with the marble arms tang and lyman front globe.
Then installed a folding rear leaf sight.
I finished it up yesterday, along with a lighter ejector spring.
I had already lightened the trigger,hammer,etc with a gunslinger spring kit.
I stained and tru oiled the wood but cant remember what stain I used.
when I tapped out the front sight and went to install the lyman globe it slid through and fell out the other side.
So then I went to reinstall the original factory sight and it slide through also.
I saw some yellow residue in the dovetail and under the front sight, must have been epoxied at the factory.
Didnt see any sign of solder.
I couldnt find my jb weld so used some gorilla glue two part epoxy, centered it up and let it set.
It is hard as a rock this morning and I cant budge it.
Only concern would be If i shot it enough to make the barrel real hot, would the epoxy let go.
I can always go back later with jb weld if I need to.

That is sexy, and great backdrop as well.

This is the pond at the back of the property.


I plan on building a cabin at the far end, very isolated back there, and much big game, bear, cats,elk,etc.
Some nights it sounds like Jurassic park out there.

Now your just photographically bragging lol beautiful place you have there.

Thank you AK
