Moe T Vator Posted January 5 Author Share Posted January 5 2 hours ago, Warden Callaway said: Why are the parts scrambled? Appaloosa guns. Because it looks cool. There’s a slight weight difference between the stainless and blued pistols. By switching the parts over it brings the weights to within just a few ounces of eachother. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Three Foot Johnson Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 I know the "ramped front sight" has been disputed before, but I don't remember what the outcome was. A ramped sight tapers sharply downward from the muzzle toward the cylinder, such as on a Blackhawk, but I don't know if the base itself constitutes a tapered ramp sight.

Larsen E. Pettifogger, SASS #32933 Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 Shooter's Handbook, page 35. Revolver – Fixed Sight Models - Fixed sight revolvers may only use traditional style, barrel mounted, fixed metallic foresights of a simple blade, bead, or post configuration. - A simple open notched rear sight cut into the frame, hammer, or latch mechanism is the only rear sight allowed. - Ramp style front sights are not allowed. - Beaded post front sights or inserts are not allowed. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ramped part isn't in question at this point, but as Larsen Pettifogger posted above, Fixed sight revolvers may only use traditional style, barrel mounted, fixed metallic foresights of a simple blade, bead, or post configuration. The base is what disqualifies it, not the sight blade. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yul Lose Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 Looks like the blued one is illegal and the stainless one is okay. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The spacer or stand off or remnant of a ramp is the illegal part. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
