Default picked up my dad's gift today

I just got back from picking up my dad muzzy.

an knight wolverine. guy only fired it an handful of times. paid $110 for it.

gave me about 1/2 pound of triple 7 2f, knight cleaner, some triple 7 primers, about 10 250gr sst, couple speed loaders, and powder cap for the triple 7 bottle

did not have any sights on it. Will sights off an disc extreme work on it?

Throw a scope on it. That will make it easier for your Dad. I am not sure if the sights can be changed over like that.

reason ask about the sights, he has been an open sight shooter his whole life. only once he has shot an rifle with an scope. it was my 22 10+ years ago.


guess i always could try and see if the holes line up.

this is his first new gun in close to 30yrs. lol

That's one heck of a deal. As far as the sights go I put new sights on my Traditions and used these, they do make them specific towards brands so watch it. These are the brightest I've ever seen.

Thanks you son.... In case you forgot my address to mail it - it is.............

That's great.
I remember buying my dad a S&W revolver one year for Christmas. He was very happy. Almost made him cry. He always got for me so when I could afford it I got for him. Just wish he was still around. Enjoy your dad while you can - even his faults, cause he won't be around forever.
