Dovetail front sight on Rogers and Spencer?

[mwmoore10261]

I have had dovetail front sights put on all my Colts once I found out it was allowed for skirmishing. Is a dovetail front sight also allowed on the Rogers and Spencer? Sure do like to have an adjustment for windage.

Yes you may dovetail the front sight on the revolver. Here is the rule

14.9.1 (k)

Front sights on revolvers and long arms may be secured to the barrel using a dovetail base in the original position. The attachment of the barrel-sight combination, after the insertion of the dovetail, must conform to theoriginal configuration. The sight must be permanently affixed. There can be no method of adjustment built into the front sight.

I hope this helps
