"Bubba'd " my Charter Undercover

[gb6491]

Again, I'd like to thank you all for taking the time to comment on the Charter's new front sight
I find myself really liking the white dot with this setup; it makes for very fast sight acquisition.

Regards,

fantastic work!

As a comparison, I had Jim Clark (of Clark Custom) dovetail on a shotgun tritium sight. He did a great job, but declined to do it again. He said there just wasn't enough profit in it considering he has a year long backlog of comp guns. FWIW, he left a paper thin width of space between the sight rib and sight bottom to compensate for the heat difference between steel and aluminum as the snubbie's barrel heated up. Here's a couple of pics:





Next time, I'm calling you!

Looks great! If I had more trust in my skills, I would try it out with my Armscor. I've always liked the idea of a big dot on a revolver.

Also, I was half expecting to read you used J.B. Weld, because, lets face it, I would have.

Of course you've offended all of us Bubba's in the world.

I said it as a joke before, but really can you break my model 638-3 if I provide you with the big dot sight,

That's not a Bubba job. I don't see any duct tape or bailing wire anywhere on the pistol. Nice Job!

Thanks to all for your input

XavierBreath,
That Bodyguard is outstanding; thanks for posting the photos of it!
The "meltdown" is very appealing.

Regards,
Greg
