Bullett Sass 19707 Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 I am planning on shortening the barrel on my 1858 pietta 36 cal revolver. Can someone tell me how the front sight and the loading lever keeper are attached? And for those that have already done this is there some easier way to replace them once the barrel is shortend ? Thanks Bullett Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
