It's really cool that you have your Dad's service revolvers. What are they? And guessing they're in .38 Special caliber?Coach wrote:Mostly pistols but I do have a couple revolverPT7 wrote:Pistol or revolver?
Both my revolvers were my Dads service guns when he was a Deaputy Sheriff
BTW, when I answered your question on the xxxhorn sights, I knew that you were really after the larger harvest!! Easy to get that.

Re: I need help with adjusting my stock Elkhorn sights
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.
