If I mount a Ballard tang sight on my 1873 Maynard, will the result be a Mallard or a Baynard?   Shocked

I think that I know that somebody makes a Maynard sight. Is it the Parts Unknown guy? Romano? I can't get it to sludge through.

Ballards may be weaker,
but they sure are neater!

Technically it would be a Balmay, or a Lardnard! Grin

Grin  Deck the 'walls with Maynard's folly, 
Ballard la de dah, and Stevens lose.   
All are fun but bring a challenge, 
what you like's what you should choose.   8)

Who said frogs ain't got no literary style?   Wink   

Just remember, "A mind is a terrible thing to waste, but a waist is a terrible thing to mind!"   Cheesy
