I have a Model 625-4, it has what I believe is one of the earliest "new" style rear sights.
What is different from any of my other guns is both the location of the screw in front that holds it in place and also the size of the screw itself, it has a small head, much like the "old style" yet the front of sight has a rounded tang.
Anyone familiar with this and have any ideas where to get a new rear sight like this? I have checked a lot of places and of course S& W
The old ones are discontinued, but I have extras and people still have NOS and used, and the "normal " new style, they are readily available. This variant does not seem easy to find.
S&W is no help, they sent me the wrong one and then took it back but young women I spoke to said that's all they have. She said what do I expect for such an old gun? I wanted to say that in my World it's a new gun as it's from the early 1990's!!
I like to be able to change heights, that why I want a second, plus for damage control, if I drop it.
I am going to place a "want to buy" post too.
