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
I discussed this with my regular gunsmith a couple of weeks ago. He said that to install the Meprolight insert on the new blade, it has to be put in with epoxy resin because the newer red ramp inserts are larger. I assume he knows because he has been putting them on.
