I recently purchased one of the new Bisley Single Six revolvers in caliber .32 H&R. I found that with the rear sight clicked down as far as it would go I was hitting about 2 1/2 inches high at 12 yards. I knew that Fermin was making and selling a custom front sight so I ordered one that I new was taller than the factory front sight. When received ,I bolted it on and proceeded to test fire with the same load as before. The revolver now shot just a bit low but three clicks up on the factory rear sight and my revolver was hitting a basketball size rock at 75 yards. I love the look and improved function of Fermins front sight much more than the original. Loving this .32 Bisley Revolver.
Good job Fermin.

I have the same gun, and had the same experience as you. Three cheers for Fermin. Now I can adjust for lighter and heavier loads, and the sight picture is much better than the original. Best gun money I ever spent.

They are certainly great sights. Its nice to have a variety of widths to choose from.
I keep different heights and notch width rear sight blades, so the combinations can cover any gun or load.
My Single Six based guns run from 22 LR to 10mm Auto. So, variety is needed.

Thanks Huey I’m glad you like them!
For the guys who don’t want to read that book my first post has turned into, these fronts are .125”’standard but the blades can be thinned to .115”, .110”, .100” and I’ve thinned some all the way down to .085” if you like.

Just received two today. I thought they looked good in the posted pictures, they look even better when you have them in hand.
Had them thinned to 0.100", serrated and blued with screw, can't beat the price.
Now I have work to do on guns tomorrow I believe these going on my 9 1/2" .32 H&R Magnum and my 5 1/2" 327 Federal Magnum.
Hope I don't like these so well that I have order some for .22's.
Thanks Fermin
Dana

Geez Dana, you can’t just let those 22’s suffer like that...

HERE WE GO, I JUST ORDERED 2 FRONT SIGHTS FROM FERMIN, .110 WIDE, BLUED & SERRATED, + THE SCREWS, FOR USE ON A 9 1/2 INCH RUGER 32 H&R AND A 7 1/2 INCH RUGER SINGLE 7 327. AM ALSO SENDING HIM THE 32 H&R CYLINDER TO CHECK THE THROATS. THE PICTURE OF TAFFIN's GUNS WAS MORE THAN I COULD RESIST.

I also ordered a .570", blued, serrated, .110 wide one today. An avid hand gunner since my late teens, over forty years. I needed something new. My 5 1/2" .44 Mag. Super Blackhawk and I were shooting so many .44 Spl. 200 grain wadcutters, I though smaller. After years of PPC and .38 wadcutters, I though .32. My old trusty Single Six Convertible is one of the most accurate of well over fifty pistols I've owned. Then it hit me! The Ruger Single Seven. No, I saw the Single Six Bisley in H&R. Maybe better for 98 grain wadcutters? I bought one a few weeks ago. In Starline H&R cases, with 2.2 grains of Bullseye the 20 wadcutters grouped nice and tight at 7 yards, but 4" high! I cranked the rear down to the frame and only brought her down an inch or so. Well, with a lot left out, I started an in depth internet search on this. Guess where it led me? I joined too, because I am impressed with the comments too! Looking foreword to a good time here. Pikie
