Originally, I wanted to install a gold bead front sight on my S&W 617 with a six inch barrel. But I have yet to find anyone who makes a gold bead sight for it. For example, a 14 ct. gold bead sight from SDM Fabricating is available in two heights: .250" and .300". The factory front sight on my 617 measures .175" high. I considered a fiber optic sight as well, but the ones I've checked are still too high. What do you recommend? Thanks.
