Levergunner You could reblue the sight but first I would work on the holster and mold a sight groove or track into it to keep the sight wear down. The video on making a carjacker holster by Sam Andrews shows at about the 20 minute mark inserting the dowel rod used to mold the track. I would dampen the holster, wrap the gun in plastic wrap and insert the dowel nearly full length and hand mold the track in. It doesn't take long to do, is not hard and keeps sight wear down to a minimun. Thanks. I do a bit of leatherwork so I can easily handle that. The holster I use has a sight track in it already. It could be the fact that I've carried the gun daily for over 2 years which means I draw it at the minimum once a day (right before bed), if not a couple times.

I would uniform the throats at .432” and firelap 15-18 rounds and see if your leading issue goes away. Let me know if I can help. Fermin 361-960-3697 Thanks for the suggestion. I might do just that. Since all my throats are over groove diameter, is there any reason I shouldn't firelap first and uniform the throats later? There was a thread where one of the guys was some concerned over the throats size/groove diameter and he was considering a new cylinder. But the truth is that there are an all kinds of guys shooting high pressure 32 loads at a 308 size custom barrel. Another example is all those 44 Specials that are wearing a 44-40 barrel. I have five SBH 44 Mags and they all have .432” throats and they display excellent accuracy. It seems that I can’t buy a dang gun that I don’t have to firelap. Just ask Longoval as he is a witness. I have never seen firelapping impact cylinder throat dimensions in the slightest. This is a subject that requires a lot of pecking so please call me if you have any questions. This goes for anyone on the forum. I also do not charge to evaluate your cylinders. Fermin 361-960-3697
