Missing rear sight plunger

[Chopperdoc]

I was attempting to install a white outline rear sight blade on my 14-3.

When I removed the old screw I noticed that the spring was there but the plunger was missing.


I checked Midwayusa, Brownells, and Numrich. No luck at any of these places.

Anyone have any idea where else to check?

Thanks

Vic

Smith and Wesson would likely keep them in stock.

Looks like USA Guns and Gear has some also.

Let me know if you are unable to find a replacement. I have some extra here and I can send you one.

Have put small brads in a drill and used a jewelry file and made them
Like in a lathe.

Thanks. I’ll give them a call tomorrow!

When you install, do it in a large clear plastic bag. Saves lots of spring loaded parts from going to never never land.

If I ever move and have to clear out of my shop I’m gonna be able to build a complete gun from all the parts I’ve lost!

Brownells, #940-071-58WB

The Brownells link above is invalid.

The correct Brownells stock number, 940-071-580WB, is "out of stock".

lol, I just went thru this after I shot mine across the room. S&W is closed until after new years. I did see one on flea bay for 10 bucks, but got lucky as a friend had some around.
