Hey Pards,
I've had my henry for a few years now and absolutly love it. One thing I've always wondered about was the position of the rear sight. Mine (Uberti) has it on the barrel as most do. Some originalis (early ones?) had them mounted on the receiver. Why did they go to the barrel position, empty shells hitting the receiver sight? It seems like the longer sight radius of the the receiver sight would be a benefit. Ideas?
