Rolling block #2 tang sight

Looking for one. Apparently in is thinner to fit the smaller #2 compared to larger rolling blocks and Hepburns.
Thanks

Ballards may be weaker,
but they sure are neater!

It's not thinner. The base is slightly curved to match the curvature of the #2 top tang.

RBKENN made one that works really well for me. My tang had #9 mounting holes. I'd never heard of a #9 screw.

Ballard tang sights are all #9-40 screws.

I have 13 (,I think) #2 rifles. Ive put tang sights on many of them. They are scarce as hen's teeth. Assuming your #2 is already drilled and tapped (not all are) the easiest option is to get one of RBKENN's gallery tang sights. They work very well.
