I adjusted my loop according to the Apex video. No readjustment needed in a year of casual shooting.

When you reinstall the sights in their dovetails after finishing, does the process damage the Cerakote in the dovetails? Thanks. Robert

Excellent question, Gunnails. Rsrojas, Forum members are always interested in the history of a particular firearm, and in this case, we might wonder if a U.S. Navy Victory model travelled to Luzon Islands with a Navy pilot during the war. Do you know anything about the history of this revolver...
