Mostly pistols but I do have a couple revolver
Both my revolvers were my Dads service guns when he was a Deaputy Sheriff
It's really cool that you have your Dad's service revolvers. What are they? And guessing they're in .38 Special caliber?
BTW, when I answered your question on the xxxhorn sights, I knew that you were really after the larger harvest!! Easy to get that.

Adjusting sights - this is something simple I saw a long time ago.
Just remember this word FORS
It means "Front opposite" "Rear same"
For the rear sight - if the bullet impact needs to be higher - raise the rear sight (rear same)
or for the front sight - if the bullet impact needs to be higher - lower the front sight (front opposite)
If the bullet impact needs moved to the right - move rear sight to the right or move the front sight to the left.

You guys knew what I meant. Or I was just testing you
Thanks guys. I could have read about it but I took the easy way out and just asked the experts here.
Good thing you didn't decide on a set of Moose sights.
You wouldn't be able to lift the gun.
