Tang sight for HighWall (Read 2029 times)

	I am interested in a tang sight for a High Wall. I would like windage adjustment, but do not need a tall, long range sight. Has anyone used the New Marbles with windage adjustment?

	MtnGun, you might also look at the currently produced Lyman tang sight with the Windage top being sold aftermarket. It is somewhat reminiscent of the Pope sight, with a dovetailed plate that moves back and forth by an adjusting screw. I have originals on a Winchester high-wall and a Ballard Pacific and really enjoy using them. I think the new ones should be nearly as good for at least casual target shooting. Froggie

	In my experience, the Marbles sight is pretty crude if you want to do precision work. Froggie's suggestion is better, with the top end by Parts Unknown for the Lyman sight. It's also sold by Buffalo Arms, as I recall. David Montezuma, IA
