My 586 6" came from the factory with a Patridge sight, that is integral with the frame. It is a AAA serial number so early production. I have seen some other Patridge 686's, but they all have pinned front sights that I believe are factory from the contour of the sight and the fact that replacement Patridge sights can be purchased that fit. Most, however, have the orange insert ramp sights.
