Blahawk front sight base pinnied?

[Ronniet]

Was looking for a front sight base for a SS Blackhawk that solders on but has the blade pinned to it?
I am the gun parts web sights all they saw is a sight with the base as part of it.
When did Ruger build the pinned sights or what models did they come on?
Thanks
Ron

Don't know where you can find one, but its no trick for you gunsmith to cut off the blade from a Ruger front sight and mill out a slot and make a new blade. Maybe $50~$75?

The stainless Blackhawks have pinned sight blades. As Bob stated, any gunsmith or machinist worthy of the name could easily convert a blued gun.

Stainless guns come that way: a stainless base with a front blade pinned in so it can have a blue steel blade. https://ruger.com/products/newModelBlackhawkStainless/models.html

Except the small frame stainless that have a blue base/blade that's screwed on.

Even if you buy the Ruger stainless base, it still has to be slotted and drilled for the pin
