Source For Security Six Sights?

[kstoneking]

Does anyone know of a source for factory front and rear sights for a Ruger Security Six? I want to replace the sights on both of my stainless revolvers for cosmetic reasons (chipped paint on the rears and faded orange inserts on the fronts). Thank you in advance.

I believe the rear is the same as that used on current BH's, GP-100's etc. The front will be near impossible to find. Millett used to make a replacement but no longer due. Perhaps fleabay?

I agree with Boxhead. Now, I'm not very well educated about the Security Six but, isn't the front sight blade retained by a pin or tension screw? If so, remove and refinish/refurbish.

JMHO,

. . . isn't the front sight blade retained by a pin or tension screw? If so, remove and refinish/refurbish.

Failing that, use as a pattern to make a replacement.

Thank you all gentlemen.

I picked up a stainless sight w/orange insert for my Security Six from Numrich Arms about a month ago. Sight and pin about $15 if I remember correctly.

If you want a better sight than the factory unit, try one of these:http://www.bowenclassicarms.com/Parts_Rug_Target_Style_Rear_Sights.htm

They are the highest quality sight you can buy for Rugers.
