Here is my new to me S&W 340 with D&L Sports J Frame Sights and VZ JFW-320-BG Grips. It joins the collection of M60's, 642's, and a 337. If you are old like me and need sights you can see, the D&L sights are for thee.





The gun was refinished by Controlled Chaos Arms in Cerakoat black and sniper grey.

Yes the few specs of silver you can see are lint, and the gun has had the lock removed and properly plugged.

That is awesome!

How much does it cost for the sights and to have them installed?

About $250 for the plain black version. He also has pretty quick turn around times.

Price is right considering material has to be removed. I really like the new setup. I could see myself doing that to my 649 or SP101.

Dave does S&W J frames, but not SP101's yet. There are others that do revolvers. Check this link to another ARFCOM thread that sows you some other options.

How quick is the turnaround?

In my case it was less than a week. Dave does runs of revolvers on a regular basis, so if you get lucky like I did, you might see it as quick, but clearly not months and months of waiting.

Those are the best I have seen for the J frame.

D&L tritium sights on my 340PD. Very pleased with them.

OP, their website makes it sound like they only do revolvers with pinned front sights, but you mention a 642. I recently picked one up and am considering a sight upgrade for it. If D&L does it, and you have photos of yours, I’m interested in a few along with some details/cost. Thanks!

He only does pinned front revolvers. The sights are so good in my opinion that it's worth finding a pinned front sight gun to have them done.

Basic black sight set is $250 plus return shipping with reasonably quick turn around.
