I purchased my first Pedersoli 1874 Sharps rifle in 45/70 recently. I am looking to add a Soule rear sight. Is one manufacturer better than another? I was speaking to a person at my gun club who said that his father has a Pedersoli sight on his rifle. He claims to like it but it doesn't fold down far enough for barrel cleaning. Is this true and do any other manufacturer's sights do the same? Opinions on different Hadley cups are also welcome.
Thanks for your help,
