Gentlemen, I tossed about 20 .44/40 cases and some .357 cases that I loaded with black, into the washing machine, secured in a small calico sample bag, well tied off, with a load of my jeans , work shirts and sox, interesting to see how they clean up. The war office insisted I use the front loader that I wash saddle blankets in !!

Joe C ,
I am using MVA sight # 134 and I have a # 130 , get one with windage adjustments. The 130 is elevation only and have found some tang sight screw holes we’re not perfectly aligned and moving the front sight looks terrible. The 133 and 134 are the same with elevation screw either on top or bottom,get the top lead elevation screw,mine #134 doesn’t lay down forward as nicely when desired. Both have just enough elevation on a pistol grip stock ,you lose some elevation with a P/G stock vs straight stock. They are good to 200M maybe a bit more. The upside to MVA is I have their Buffalo L/R and a Mid range soule sights if I need more,unlikely with the 44-40 WCF for my purposes.
I have used all of their front sights and have many on many rifles I have come to prefer their #115/116 front sights lower profile and a cleaner look,the #111 has a clip on top and hangs up on everything cloth.
Note, I also use their Hadley eye cup, it makes a huge difference in any given light,I-have both the regular and the “Magnum” enough $ difference between the two the “Magnum” doesn’t offer enough additional hole sizes to benefit the 44-40 WCF.
