686 SSR sight upgrade

[SteveInAustin]

I recently acquired a 686 SSR revolver and not a huge fan of the ramp front sight. Can any one recommend a good front sight? Fiber optic preferably...and one that will drop in without modification. Thanks

I have them in pin on and classic, .100 and .125 wide, red, green or orange fiber.

I prefer the .100 red optic for IDPA, and the SSR has the quick-change no gunsmithing front sight. Just order what size you want and slip it in yourself.

Can't remember where I got it but I put a patridge sight with a gold bead on mine. Works really well for me.

Dawson Precision has the DX Classic fiber optic sight that fits the SSR.
I like the .100 in orange. Measure the current front sight for height.

Dawson makes fantastic FO sights, I have two myself. First time I took it out I started looking for where the battery goes it was so bright. I can give Dawsin my recommendation. Not saying others arent good too just that I own two Dawson fronts.
