Mike,
I understand all that. Nothing new to me there. What I was pointing out is that the OP's front sights appear to be a LOT different in height when I compare them to my trio. My K-22 has a .158" front blade height. My K-32 runs .210" and my K-38 runs .220". None of them have ever been altered or replaced. The K-32 and K-38 are almost impossible to see the difference unless you are right here looking at them. My K-22 is visibly different than the other two, but not nearly as much as the OP's. The op's K-22 front sight blade appears to be less than what is on mine by a noticeable degree, and is what caught my eye.
