King Sight Mod Question
I know this is a long shot, but I’m wondering whether anyone has a revolver with the King “Super Police” mod that they could photograph and measure for me. This is the fixed sight mod seen on M&Ps mostly where the notch in the frame (comprising the rear sight) was slightly enlarged and reshaped then given a white or perhaps silver(?) outline and the front sight had a gold bead added. The little sights on my Baby Chiefs Special are just getting too hard to see and I really like it as a CCW.
TIA~Froggie

I found a few pictures here on the forum of the set up and sent those to my gunsmith. He opened up the rear sight and inserted a rear blade. The front sight is pinned into a base soldered to the barrel. Here’s the sight picture:

Cool! are you willing to share your gunsmith's name and contact info? What did he do for the front sight blade? The strong point of the King conversion is the great sight picture afforded by the white outline and the front bead image... I'd like to get that if I do such a conversion.

Here’s a view of another one in the works. These are done by Mr. Alan Harton.
Here’s the gun and close-up of the front sight:
