WTB Ruger silhouette sights

Post by jcunclejoe »

Hello, I'm looking for a set of silhouette sights for a Ruger.

I have a new, to me, Ruger 32 H&R with the 9 1/2" barrel. I'd love to give it a run with good sights in Field Pistol.

Thank you.

Hey Joe, Do you know if the sights from a Super Blackhawk will fit your Ruger?
If so I will make a contact with a freind of mine that has a set of Bomar sights.

Steve, Barrel diameters are probably way off. RSB has a bull barrel and bigger diameter. If Joe is not interested please pm me about your friend's sights.

The rear sight is the most important one and I'm pretty certain Ruger uses the same rear sight on almost everything.

I did ask Steve to check on it for me as I am interested.

Thank you guys.

Just a FYI - when these sight sets were available they only made one kind - I installed a set on a Single Six with no problems. yes, barrel contour was a bit off, but the globe front mounted square. In fact, my brother Charlie has a Single Six with this set-up. Better grab it quick - they are virtually non-existent today !

So true, I've looked for a couple of years. Even tried South Africa where a company used to make them to no avail

I had 260strikers old SBH. He had a nice Bowen rear sight on it. I put a hooded contender front sight on. It fit nice but I had to take the front post down quite a ways. I sold it to my brother and he has the original ramp back on it.

The setup I had wouldn't meet production requirements though.

WA_SHTR+44M, If Joe didn't get his Ruger sights from your friend I would still be interested.
