Recently got one of Fermin's (2Dog's) front sights installed on my old model 41 shorty by Bobby Tyler. While the gun was there Bobby did some action work & did his wonderful color case hardening on the Ruger frame.
This OM 41 shorty is a great shooter & after installing this new sight of Fermin's is as good as it gets. This is without a doubt the best front sight I've ever used. It's narrowed to 1/10", just as I like my sights, with deep, cross filing along with the old mirror installation. It's been a long, long time since the sights have looked this sharp for these old eyes.
Shooting today with friend Russell Cottle from Oklahoma I was able to stay on the 8" steel at 80 yds from the Elmer Keith reclining position better than I have for a long time. In fact it was easy with my 212 gr HP's & 8 grs of Unique. Sure glad I got 2 of them!
