No rear sight. Also not the same gun.
Look again, has the same trigger guard.

Yeah, lack of rear sight is what I noticed.
There MIGHT be one folded down, but the way the lighting is, I don't think there's one there. On either pic.
ETA:
The barrel looks longer in the Wolverine-pose pic, but that could just be the angle or something.
The one is the fireplace picture is there, it's just shoved up the fireplace hood.
If TWD taught me anything it's that you don't need sights.
Tired the twitter link came back as something went wrong. Did they get put in twitter jail?
You mean: "we don't need sight"....'cause he's got one.

A man is behind bars after pointing a gun at residents and police officers during the protests over the weekend.According to the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department, photos and videos were posted online of Antonio Wooden aiming the firearm during the protests downtown.
Police said tips lead to Wooden’s June 2 arrest.
IMPD said Wooden was on probation and had a warrant out for his arrest in Ohio on unrelated charges. According to police, it was illegal for Wooden to be in possession of a gun.
The rifle involved in the incident was recovered by officers.
I've been on the forum for years, previously under a different name, and primarily just a lurker over the past couple of years. I am an avid gun owner, and a staunch second amendment supporter who believes that it should be held to the intent of our founding fathers - that by and large, the people have access to implements of force equal to that held by the state. I believe that those rioting, looting, and destroying public and private property should absolutely be held accountable. But I also know that our justice system is built on one principle - that of due process. That people have the right to a fair trial, and that their guilt must be proven before sentencing, that innocent people are not unduly punished for the crimes of another person.
I have to say that today I am ashamed to be a part of this community.
That we could stand by and watch as our brothers are being subjected to this. That we could watch a man killed in police custody - a man that was already detained, no danger to officers on the scene, a man that all the video evidence we have makes it clear that he was compliant with lawful police orders right up until the moment he was conveniently out of view of any cameras - killed after his airway was restricted for eight minutes - a man who met his death with no due process at the hands of police officers that had a history of complaints of excessive force against him. That we could watch a video where peaceful children and people in wheelchairs are hit by gas fired by our own police force, and make excuses justifying those actions. That our police would consider those children acceptable collateral damage to keep the peace is morally repugnant, and that we would watch that and agree with them is disgusting.
I've seen the many videos from Richmond V as well, from many different angles, of police rolling up on non-violent protesters and gassing them. The Richmond police claimed that they had officers cut off by violent protesters and had to gas the crowd to get them to safety, but all the video evidence contradicts that. Even if that were true, you don't harm innocent children to protect yourself from bodily harm. If you find yourself in trouble, no matter how dire, you don't harm innocent people to save yourself. That's cowardice, plain and simple.
I've seen the videos from Charleston, where a man who was telling the police that he wants to understand them, he wants to get to know them, he doesn't want to fight them, is dragged from the crowd and taken away. He was kneeling on the ground with his hands in the air, not posing a threat to anyone. Just talking. Just trying to be diplomatic. And he was arrested. These are not the actions of a just police force.
I hope there are still some actual patriots somewhere in this country. Men and women who know that when you tread on my brother, you tread on me. Not just cowards who masquerade under the name, seeking to protect their own rights and property, but aren't willing to do a damned thing for their neighbor in need.
And to the police officers on this forum - if there are ten bad cops and a thousand good cops, but the thousand aren't willing to stand up against the ten and stop them - there are one thousand and ten bad cops. It's that simple. All it takes for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing.
I'm absolutely NOT calling for violence of any kind, but I will say this: If you went out to protest Coronavirus restrictions, but you're sitting at home making excuses for the police firing teargas into crowds of children - you need to stop calling yourself a supporter of the Second Amendment, because you have no understanding of the purpose it serves.
you basically just summed up my life story!When I get the "something went wrong" message, there's usually a "try again" button and that has always worked for me.
So, turning his life around?
You don't need sights if you don't have eyes.
I knew a cowboy action shooter that was very quick and accurate with a Browing 92 lever action. He sighted down the forend wood grip and didn't use the sights. Excellent snap shooter.
But yeah....I scream at the TV a lot when firearms are "used".
