I’m looking for one too. I think Fermin may be getting some blanks in to make some but you’ll have to drill the hole in the sight blade yourself or have your gunsmith do it.

If all you need is the blade, I have gotten them from Ruger.

I don't think that Ruger makes a Patridge style blade, I can't stand the factory ramped blade.

Howdy boys! I am waiting on some blanks but here is the thing about the pin in blades you guys should all know:
The holes are not all in the same place. So, if you want to be sure your pin in blade fits right you will have to drill the blade yourself. Now it is very important you drill it in 2 steps. If not, you have a good chance the hole wont come out on the other side where you want it. So, you drill it part way on one side, and then finish drill it from the other side. It isn't that hard but it would be nice to have an extra pair of hands handy when you do it.
Then, you will STILL be stuck with the Ruger base. If you have a gunsmith install your pin in blade, and he uses his milling machine to locate the hole, keep in mind while he has the thing in the mill that Ruger base would benefit greatly from a little sculpting.....

Anyone know if a S&W pin in front blade will fit in the ruger notch? There's actually some selection for S&W blades.
The workaround I'm using to deal with the ramp right now is Testors black model paint, then using a pencil eraser to get rid of the glossy surface.

I bought a blade from Clements several yrs ago. A tall serrated patridge with a slight angle to it. Not cheap tho.

Ok, I got the pin in fronts for Rugers and a few for Smiths. I can take your requests however I’m not turning any out until I finish these BFR units. Thanks for your interest.
