1881 mid range rear sight
Whiskey Double:
I have a 1881 ( made 1883) in 45 Gov't looking for a ladder barrel sight or tang sight, preferably vernier. Can anyone help?
Thanks

The Shaver sight lists the base as for Marlin/Ballard. My previous post shows the same base mounted on my '81 and the bolt clearance issue. I doubt the base could be flipped 180 and still have the stem upright and in the detent. If one wanted to drill a new hole and thread it and counter bore for a longer tang screw it may work, maybe not wise on a nice original rifle.

I called and talked to her , she went through all the records and didn't have anything for a 1881. Took my info and is going to have Lee call me. Thanks Drydock. Trying to get it ready for Jerry's buffalo shoot.
