Thanks, I reposted the video in my first post and that picture in my second post.

I forgot to post a picture of the box I was shooting at, pretty tight group at the top edge about 6-8 inches high.
I think I`ll try building up the front sight first, I imagine the sight is silver soldered or brazed on ?

I see a roll of solder in one picture.  How did you build up the front sight?

Filed the brass clean then used a electric soldering iron or actually a wood burner with a flat tip and built it up a little at a time into a ugly blob then file file file.

These are Tony Lama`s which isn`t my most comfortable, I have a pair of Laredo`s I wear most the time.
