DELETE--who replaces red ramp front sights?

[Pumaonly]

I have a model 29 with the red front sight that has faded. I would like it replaced. Does anyone know you can do this?
The gun is a nickel model 29 4 screw. The ramp is the dull black ramp and is pinned. I will replace both the ramp and red sight if the correct part can be bought or just the red plastic part which is preferable.

I believe Brownells sells the kit to do it yourself. You mix up an epoxy and fill the notch.

I've installed many a RR using the handle from a toothbrush. It just takes patience.

Midway offers the replacement red ramp front sight. Measure your sight before ordering to be sure it will work for your 29. Here is the link:

You can do it yourself for less than 10 bucks... I did this pre-29 and it came out great. I wouldn't waste much time with a "kit" unless you like to waste $...

This was my first try... I used clear epoxy mixed with testors paint. I sliced up an old credit card and used it as a guide. Be sure to coat the parts you don't want the epoxy to stick to, like the "guides" with some wax (I used Ren wax)... Trim to your liking carefully with a razor.. Be sure to mix up a test batch to get the color correct. It takes VERY little paint to tint the clear epoxy..

Here is what I did... You would be hard pressed to be able to tell it apart from a factory original insert.
