Default interchangeable front sight???

Are the interchangeable front sights frame specific, or can you mix and match them between K, L and N? TIA...

If you are talking about the blades, frame size doesn't matter. You do need one that is a compatible height for your rear sight.

Adios,

I have a 629-3 classic that pops 5 different front blades in and out. Unfortunately, I only got the gun at a gunshow almost 20 years ago. Joe

I have a 625 that came with 4 blades. Looking at a p/c 686 and was wondering if the same blades would work on it also... Thanks.

That front gold bead sight I have on the 686+PC is specifically off of my 625 JM.
I think I only used the front sight on it, once.
The 686+ PC has had sights off of my 629's and 625's.
They are the DX interchangeable front sights.
