.. That's one very nice piece of gear there. Imagine it gives quite a sharp front sight image. Must drop the globe off the front of my 50/ 70 and see what I can accomplish with a blade Rolleyes

Stephen.

It should be home by the time I get home Smile We took the cookie munchers 5 and 7 year old Grand Daughters camping with the Gypsy Wagon for a few days. They sure are fun being with us. I just wish I could still keep up with them Smile That sight will get hammered on as soon as I get home for sure.
Thank you.

Perfect Kurt. One other thing. The sight is tapered, so one side will slide in further then the other by hand and that's the way it should go in. I use a raw hide hammer then finish installing it with a hammer and brass drift.

Enjoy
