This thread should probably be in Editing.

The Model 12 does have a rear sight: the top of the frame is molded (or more likely milled) to form one. You can't see it from the side.

The front sight is visible in that photo, though quite blurry and indistinct.

that's really cool... i wasn't sure whether i'd use the sight or not, it was more of a really, really strong curiosity with the functionality

If you're making sprites for the snub-nose version, I wouldn't bother. Revolvers that short aren't typically used at ranges further than spitting distance.
