Love this forum-just put money down on a 15-2 357 with 6inch bbl, Monson

This gun comes with a plain black sight, no color tab

is this just a normal variation?

 

many thanks

Yep, those are common- a partridge sight.  You'll want to visit Eric's store (EWK on the right margin) and pick up a fiber sight if you plan to shoot in low-light (hunting) conditions. Otherwise you can stick with what you have or pick up a front sight with insert.  It's all about your preference.

Does the front site have a set screw on the end of the shroud under the sight or is it pinned?

The early 15-2 models had a plain sight (no plastic insert) and was pined in place. DW shortly went to the interchangeable sight with colored inserts.

The plain black front blade was the preferred sight for silhouette.
