Thanks Lee. I asked Bowen to use the USFA rear sight from a Flattop target to give a bit different look than the Ruger drift adj rear sight.

No way to criticize that one! My favorite SA is my Uberti Flat-Top Target -- love the windage-adjustable rear sight.

I'm assuming a recoil shield is the piece opposite the loading gate?

That is one beautiful piece.

The recoil shield, is the 1/4 sphere that the loading gate is a trough in. Between the hammer and the cylinder.
