I have a 4.2" Redhawk in 44 mag and one in 45 Long Colt. Will the V-notch & Gold Dot sights you sell work for those barrel lengths? The ones you sell are taller than the 4" sights on my guns.
For what it's worth. I have a redhawk in 44 mag with 5.5" barrel and they work great in it. Basically same height as the factory red ramp.
the 4" Redhawks are set up completely different

they have a totally different front sight and as far as I know there is no replacement like ours that will fit your Redhawk. Sorry.
Hi Viz makes a replacement

you need to find the height you need. I HATE a gun that shoots low. I can handle one that hits a foot high to POA but not one that shoots low! My pet peeve.
I think I use one for a .454 RH on my "Hunter Model" Bisley .41 GNR. It works within the mechanical limits of the adjustment.
sorry, I thouht he was asking about the interchangeable

Sorry I did not clarify in the beginning. My new 4.2" Redhawks have the same quick release from sight as my 5.5" or GP100s. The old originals that were 4" I know had pinned front sights.
With that said I am concerned that the gold dots you sell might just be too High. Could a plain rear sight blank be used and I just file in a notch till is works?
if your Redhawk has the spring loaded front sight

then the Redhawk gold bead front sight will fit. Measure the height of the front sight and let me know and I can tell you whether or not our gold bead will work.

I measured. The stock red ramp is 0.390” . The Reeder gold dot sights are 0.435” (possible 0.433”). Will your gold dots work on both the 45 long colt and 44mag redhawks i have? Both are 4.2” barrels
