better sights for Henry BBS

[odette]

are there any better replacement sights for a Henry Big Boy Steel .44 or .41 lever action H012

[cwtebay]

No is the short answer. But I replaced my dad's with an express sight, and added a tang sight for the main game.

You can get Skinner peep sights .many claim they are a vast improvement.

Yes, Skinner sights are a vast improvement.

I have the Henry .41 mag. The rear sight moves with every shot. Henry was great in sending a replacement rear sight but it doesn't stay in place either. Skinner is about the best replacement sight I could find so with what the others above have recommended, I'll vouch for the Skinner.

Skinner sights are ugly as sin. Their front sights stick up ugly like a Vultures head on a Swans neck.

Their xpress sights destroyed the concept of Spirit of the Game, after the sass wild bunch caved to the gamers.

Get some decent sights like Williams Gold Bead front sight. And either a full buckhorn rear sight for fast shooting or a FoolProof Receiver sight for precision shooting.

Ranger Point Precision is another Option.

I scoped my Henry 44 lever.It made a big difference in what I could hit.It's hell getting old.:wink:

[CastingFool]

I scoped my Henry BBS, too. For a while, it was my varmint gun. 45Colt does a good job on woodchucks at 65 yds.

I'm going to agree with Walks on the Skinners. To each his own.

I picked this up for coyotes. they are getting braver the more snow we get and they must be getting hungrier. game cam showed them just outside of the barn trying to get at my mini horses, ducks and geese. I also carry a 1911 .45acp in case they get real close.

I wish XS made sights for the Henry. I have a set on my Marlin Guide Gun and love it. I will probably get the Skinner fir my BBS, but the Ranger Point looks good as well. I like how the peep is better protected with it.

I put a Marbles Bullseye sight on mine. I really like it. It mounts in the original dovetail, and works as good as a peep, IMO. Easily adjustable for elevation on the fly. Adjusts just like the buckhorn. I did paint the inner ring a bright red on mine for clarity. My eyes aren't what they used to be.
