I'm new here so I'm hoping that I am posting this in the appropriate location....
Guys I rescued a 1973 model stainless. 357 with the 4 5/8s barrel and the front sight was missing. I ordered one for a 45 colt and made it fit, I generally shoot heavy for caliber bullets out of my revolvers so this taller sight was great as I could file it down and zero it at 25 yards and still have adjustment in the rear for elevation so I could shoot a wider range of bullet weights.
Everything is great with what I did and it ended up being. 370 high measuring off the base.
My question is what is supposed to be the factory height?
I had to order a taller front sight for my model #5032 45 acp/45 colt Redhawk to compensate for the 310 grain cast I shoot out of it. That sight came from Hamilton Bowen and was .060 taller than the factory.
If one of you could measure a factory height I would appreciate it just out of curiosity.
Thanks guys
