Pistol rear sight blade
I want to upgrade my Alfa Proj .357 MLR rear sight. It seems to be based on the S&W system with a replaceable blade. Can anyone point me in the right direction or anyone got one, preferably illuminated or tritium like they want to sell?
Re: Pistol rear sight blade
Have a word with Jim. Back in the day he imported shed loads of S&Ws and was instrumental, together with Westlake, to build the Alfa MLR. If he can’t answer your question, that only leave God...
In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?

Re: Pistol rear sight blade
There are no drop in sights or blades that will fit the Alfa .
S & W rear sights would need the Alfa frame to be machined .
Best option is fit a Weaver rail and some sort of red dot sight.

Other options .
Buy an Aristocrat sight rib , and get it modified to fit the Alfa .
Buy the type of sights you want and get someone to make an Aristocrat type sight rib with the sights you have bought fitted to it .
Both options will need the barrel shroud removing to be drilled and tapped .

Re: Pistol rear sight blade
The ideal pistol sight picture is a sharp focused foresight with the daylight either side of it sharp and clear. Anything which draws your eyes to the rear sight is bad.
