Definitely go shoot it! Looks cool with the flash hider.
On the front sight, the answer is maybe. The height of the front sight in relation to the height of the back sight affects how well the POA (point of aim) corresponds with the POI (Point of impact). The lower the front sight, the higher the gun has to be tilted to line up with the back sight. Thus if one is trying to do the "pumpkin on a post" sighting (where the bottom of the front sight circle is even with the top of the back sight), the shooter will likely shoot high, especially if the back sight is raised to full elevation. In other words, the answer to your question is it depends on how the shooter wants to line up the sights. I'm pretty sure I've got it right but others will correct me if I'm wrong.

The high end of the fiber optic is supposd to face the shooter--this gives a true circle....however, to each his own. Shoot whatever works berst for you.

That's a good looking bunch of accessories you've got there. I gave my 6" EH barrel it's first run last Monday on the 4th, what a blast! Sorry, no

Looks great Jordan!
On the fiber optics, the serrated end is supposed to go towards the rear sight, but as been mentioned, if you like it the other way, go for it!

I dig! I'm on the fence about the flash hider, as well, but the slabside looks awesome. I know it's 2" shorter, but did it add any weight?

Does this SlabSide make me look fat, Honey?

Thanks guys, the 6" slabside is most definitely heavier than the factory 8" bull barrel i took off. But talk about great looks, great accuracy, and no kick!

Wasn't too crazy about that EH at first but, the more I see of these cool looking Dans' and the extra benefit of less kick. That is one nice looking Dan, Jordan!
I'm hooked! Haven't even got my first 15-2 back from Hotbluer yet and already thinking about a .44 mag. I'm afraid she's gonna be using my 15 on me before I get a chance to shoot it.

Great looking 15-2 there. I just picked up a flash hider from EWK. Love to hear your thoughts on it as I won't get a chance to go shooting anytime soon.

Well, besides being easy to remove in the field with no tools... i dropped my W-12 the other day at the range--just fumbled it in my hand. It hit the pavement, but luckily it landed right on the flash hider which took the blow. Small ding on the cylinder from the secondary fall, but the muzzle is fine.
