Sharpshooter,

I'm confused. I have a DX that has a red ramp(among the other interchangeable ones). One of the 686s I mentioned above on which I installed the Mepro has a pinned sight that was a red ramp before I installed the Mepro. The Mepro fit perfectly. The slots for the insert on both guns match that of the other 686, which has the integral sight ramp.

Another way to say this is that one of my 686s has an integral sight, and the other has a pinned sight. I bought two sets of Meprolights, and the front insert with both sets fit both sights. The slot in the DX sight, also a red ramp, looks identical.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding you somehow. If you have a chance could you help clear up my confusion?


Thanks,
Andy
