This is a story. I bought a Steoger Uberti 1885 with a pedersoli tang sight. I'm going to replace it with a Kelley sight. Im not sure I like the looks of the Pedersoli sight but it's growing on me
184551. Thinking about putting it on the 1873. Any opinions.

Just for your info, I got a Kelley sight from Buffalo Arms , its a nice sight but after getting an MVA sight it's not as nice. the 2 main things are that there is a tiny bit of freeplay in the elevation screw and windage ( soule sight ) and the other thing is the staff locking spring ( for the angle ) does not always stay where its set, it creaps a little and throws off the angle. the Mva has none of those issues. I do like the simple variable aperture and the looks of the Kelley . It maybe just the one that I have so I don't want to bash them too bad ( although it did cost more that the rifle it's on :) .

Thanks for the information. I really like the looks of the Kelley but I want a sight that works.
