Dang it. I am so clumsy.

Bought a pair of pristine walnut target grips for my 1974 Ruger Standard that was a gift from my brother. Got them put on last night. Look and feel great.

Then......

....as I went to carry it back to the safe I dropped it on the ceramic tile floor in the kitchen. Right on the front sight. Bent it.

Just reading that made me wince. Bummer.

May be fixable by a good gunsmith. Maybe?

 

[Toney]

Dang!!!!

Yes, it's fixable. Ruger still sells the proper front sight and I MIGHT be able to fix it with judicious use of a file and a re-blue.

The Standard has a pinned on front sight blade. Should be and easy fix.
