Need help I.D.ing a rear sight on a 629

Anyone have these? I was told they are factory, but I don't have them on any of mine...

I don't know who made them but I do know they look cool and very, functional.

That is the Extreme Duty rear sight manufactured by Cylinder and Slide. It is available with dots or without. I put that on my 386PD several years ago. Mine mates up with a fiber optic front sight.

The factory uses the same sight on the Night Guard series of revolver that were first introduced in 2007. The NG series utilize the Big Dot tritium sight from Ashley Express.

I had the same sight on one I bought last year. It wasn't factory, it was an Extreme Duty. So +2 for the Extreme Duty.

No better than stock and no worse. I didn't pay extra for them, they were on the gun when I bought it. Sorry to be so vague, but they didn't ring my bell. They did have less sharp edges and everybody wanted to see what they were. The 2 dots really made it hard to aquire the front sight. I usually prefer the white outline to the 2 dots. Unless it is a 3 dot night sight system.

Are they metal or polymer? The pics make it look like they are plastic.
