New sight for r92


Rifles    No Replies

tommag, 38 minutes ago

A few years ago I bought a stainless Rossi 92 in .357. I smoothed out the action and replaced the plastic magazine follower with a metal one. Buckhorn sights don't play well with my eyes so I ordered a rear aperture sight from a Russian guy that replaced the safety. Turns out there's no way to lock it in place besides shimming the bottom and leaving it set at that position. Without shimming it was about 30° from straight when screwed all the way down.
I ordered this sight from Steve's guns. It has a knurled locking ring, much better!

I haven't installed it yet, but I like the fact that it has no groove for the pin that holds it in place so I can cut the groove myself for a proper fit. It also comes with the right size drill bit to cut the groove in place with the bit of you prefer to use that method.[Image: IMG-20250418-104024.jpg]

Not Sure What I Think of This

Doctor took me off a oral diabetic med and started me on this, my kidneys are not the greatest & she said this is easier on kidneys than what I was taking for type 2 diabetes 

Only a few weeks into it & can’t really tell any difference. Have an appointment with a nephrologist at the end of the month & not looking forward to that…….Not to mention the nuclear medicine hear test or the echocardiogram I’ve got….

Getting old sucks, never thought I’d be alive now so there’s that 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️
