Hi everyone, I'm looking to buy a receiver sight for an older model ruger 44 magnum carbine. This is the model 44RS rifle, which has a slot for a receiver sight milled into the left vertical side of the receiver.
I know there are new sights available that mount on top of the receiver or that require drilling and tapping to side mount, but I'm looking specifically for the old style that fits directly into the slot in the side of the receiver.
I have already contacted williams and lyman, they both used to make one but don't have anything that would work for it anymore. I don't know the specific model numbers of the sights they used to make, unfortunately.
If anyone has one you are willing to part with please let me know what you want for it. I know they aren't easy to find.
Alternatively, if anyone knows of another sight that would fit in this milled dovetail and work appropriately I would be very glad to have that info.
Thanks,
Andy
