johniac7078 Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 I have a S&W no dash 4inch 686. I want to change the front sight, but I believe the barrel is pinned. What are my options and who would you recommend sending it to? I am looking to fit it with a FO front sight, 0.1 or so wide. Thanks in advance.

Toolguy Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 Doesn't matter if the barrel is pinned or not. Is the sight pinned on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, the sight is part of the barrel. It would have to be milled off and a notch cut or a dove tail added. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toolguy Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 I can do it if you can just send the barrel. I also have the sights and can send it back ready to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COF Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 Have it milled off and install a Wiegand sight base. That's what I did with mine and it allows a lot more front sight variety like the new 686's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
