Actually they did! But only on the original model 67 "no dash" guns, and IIRC on a very few of the first 67-1s. I happen to own an early production (1973) model 67 no dash with the stainless rear sight. I suspect that S&W discontinued the ss sights as the blued sights produce more of a contrast for an easier to pick up sight picture. Not my gun, but shows the ss rear sight: | |||

Yes the word at the time was that the SS frt/rear sights offered little contrast in low light, etc. So they quickly replaced them with blued sights. Nice pair....I have a NIB 67 but I don't believe that in ALL my years I have never owned a M-15. I've always leaned towards the M19/66's. I like the shrouded ejector rod "look". Plus somehow I started with the magnums as I could shoot mags as well as Specials out of them. Plus my first cop issue was a M-19. | |||
