Does anyone know of a website showing Kings work on SAAs?
I’ve seen some of their work in Keith’s books. But I wonder if anyone has compiled anything about this subject?

Scott, I looked around and found this.https://americanhandgunner.com/handguns ... hool-cool/
And also this https://smith-wessonforum.com/threads/d ... ad.611178/
My Old Friend who collected Savage 99's had several with King front sights with a tiny mirror behind the front bead. It looks like Cornell publications has reprints of some of the King catalogs.

There are several SAA'a owned by Colt Forum members with King sight mods.

Neat. Is that the same rear sight S&W used on the Registered Magnums?

I don’t really know. I’ll get better photos later.

Sure looks like an adjustable S&W rear sight.

I see Special on the barrel, 38 or 44? And more importantly, did you buy it?

Wow! I never seen that front sight before with the mirror, or the rear sight either.

I have a Kings front sight with a gold bead and the mirror for a rifle.

Fermin Garza makes a King inspired reflector sight. I'd like to try one, new or old.

Scott,
I stumbled onto this video which gives a good look at a DW King Colt SAA, 45 Colt 4 3/4. Hope it is of some help.
