Pinetor,

NO drilling or tapping required. Just keep you eyes out for an AIMPOINT
scope mount for the DW. You just remove the rear sight (no big deal) and it
attaches to the sight area and clamps to the top rail. It is simple and rock
solid. If you want to change back, it takes maybe 5 minutes. However, once I
mounted a scope on mine, I decided to leave it on. Besides, it is a good
excuse, I mean reason to buy another DW revolver.

Good luck,

Ron

I had been looking at doing that. I dont want to tap or in any mar

the shroud I have. So, every once and while I look on ebay for

another 8" shroud for cheap. I did find triple set of patridge-

sighted shrouds, but they were in very poor condition.. and at $80

definately not a deal. (from another reply the biopters look like

idea!)



PS: Don't get me wrong I still smoked the guy. His response "well

this gun is for close quarters defense"... heheh mine- I prefer to

take out a bad guy before he can hit me! it's all about the range

baby!
