My new (to me) S&W 25-5 is a 4" gun and it has a plain black rear sight blade. With my 1/2 blind eyes, I need a white outline rear and Smith&Wesson offers them with 3 different heights-.126, .146, and .160. As near as I can tell, you really need to break the screw and remove the adjusting screw and remove the rear sight blade to measure it. I would like to have the new one in hand when I do this. Does anyone know what height a 4" 25-5 should have? Thanks
IT AINT what ya shoot--its how ya shoot it. NONE of us are as smart as ALL of us!
Adjust the sight blade all the way to the left, it will overhang the body enough to measure with a caliper.
Thank you, it's a .146.
