Accessories for Smith & Wesson

Smith & Wesson revolvers remain a common sight on ranges and in revolver divisions. The K, L, N and X frames, from the model 19 and 66 to the 686, 629 and 500, make up most of this page, with the M&P pistols, the SD VE, the SW22 Victory and the older third generation automatics alongside.

Revolver sights

Factory revolver sights are often fine for slow fire but hard to see fast. LPA makes steel adjustable sights for S&W revolvers with a fiber optic front for a bright point in daylight, as full sets or as a rear only, in black or silver. The front sight on these revolvers is held either by a pin or by a spring, and the sets are made for one or the other, so check yours first. There are also red dot ready versions and a fiber optic front for the Competitor. The sets need a frame drilled and tapped for the S&W scope mount, which all new frames are. Because the rear sight seat is shared across frame sizes, the same sight serves many models, all in Sights for Smith & Wesson.

A red dot on a revolver

A dovetail red dot mount for K, L, N and X frames replaces the rear sight with no machining, for RMR or RMSc footprint optics. It is an easy way to try a dot on a revolver and go back if you do not like it; the mounts are in Red dot mounts for Smith & Wesson.

M&P and other pistols

For the M&P, LPA adjustable sights come in fiber optic, luminescent or white dots, and the M&P M2.0 Optics Ready takes semi-adjustable co-witness sights and tritium sets from Night Fision. Red dot mounts from Outer Impact fit the M&P and M2.0, the M&P Shield EZ, the SD9 VE and SD40 VE and the SW22 Victory. The Holosun SCS MP2 sits directly in the M2.0 Optics Ready cut, and the M&P Shield Plus takes a type S plate: Optics ready plates for Smith & Wesson. For the 645 and 745 and the .45 third generation there are adjustable rears.

Frequently asked questions

Pin front or spring front sight?

The sets are made for one of the two ways the front sight is held on the barrel. Check how yours is fixed before you order, and if you are unsure, email us a photo at info@ubitzu.eu.

Will the revolver sights fit my older revolver?

Only if the frame is drilled and tapped for the S&W scope mount. All new frames are; older ones may not be.

Does a red dot fit a 686 without gunsmithing?

Yes. The dovetail mount replaces the rear sight and takes an RMR or RMSc footprint optic.
