Time for an update. I got ahold of Mr Garza, and he made me a beautiful front sight. I highly recommed him, not only for his excellent work, but he really is a pleasure to work with. Now I just have to get an opening at the gun smith for a drill-and-tap. I ordered a standard rear sight from Magnum Research, but they are still backordered. So I picked up a Ruger sight and installed it last night. It fit perfectly. Hopefully, Ill have it at the range soon. You can get a couple different V-NOTCH rear sight blades for that Ruger Sight. I prefer the white outlined rear sight blade myself.

Looks like Dave Clements' work. Just a guess...

Brother, where did you get that front sight? This is/was the "go to" front sight that John Gallagher (RIP) recommended and put on his guns. The gun in the pic is my Gallagher 500 Magnum. Along with a Bowen rear it a great combo. At least for my eyes. The vertical line is machined/engraved and then painted like the rear.

My only dedicated “oh crap” gun is a 5 1/2-inch BFR in .500 JRH. It wears an LPA rear sight and Fermin’s badass front sight. It’s perfect.

I put 2 Dogs front sight on my SBH and it is great, and a great guy to work with. Lots of choices.

I finally got it dropped off at the gunsmith, will get the front sight mounted, the timing adjusted and everything slicked up. Should have it back Saturday evening.
