Went into the retail store of the local gun range today to air some complaint about their skeet fields not working. After talking with the owner, I went "awandering" to their walk-in long gun vault and perusing their handgun case. (which was FULL of new black plastic wonder guns).
Down in the darkest corner of the glass case was this revolver..........upon further inspection a decent 17-2 sitting on consignment. They were asking $850, I countered much lower, they called the owner and a deal was done. Took off the ugly rubber Pachmayrs and put on a set of GAs from my 66 and now it is decent enough.
My question to the group is this-
I am seriously thinking of putting a handgun scope on this one (not a red dot) and was curious how to go about it - are there mounts that simply replace the current adjustable sight rig, or is this a gunsmith tap and die scenario?
Thanks for any insight...........
I'll be be leaving my 17-4 3Ts as I found that when I bought it at a flea market
