.38, sure you've seen a million of them!
I know I will invoke the wrath of S & W purists. The front sight of my snub nose .38 is high and blocks the view of the target; I can't see what I want to hit.
I want to take my pistol over to the bench grinder and grind off about a quarter inch (approx.) of front sight, so that I can line up the front with the rear and have a "good sight picture". I think: functionality over appearance, get it so it is accurate! On the other side of the coin: "what the hell...grinding off material on a perfectly good gun"? You can never put it back and I might ruin the resale value, even though I don't plan on selling.
Any other ideas? I am just a plinker, but I like to be "dead on".
