I have a problem with a Lyman 66A(?) Receiver Sight mounted on an early '80s 94 Winchester. Nicely made sight, preferable to a Williams Foolproof, IMO. Or it would be except that it has a problem with the fit of the aperture holder to the windage slide.
The holder is so loose, in the bridge(part that goes over the receiver) that it can rotate upwards at the rear. Enough so that the view through the aperture becomes blurry & distorted because you are actually seeing the front end of the aperture tube.
In this pic the aperture is down and parallel to the bridge.
This one shows how far the aperture can rotate upward.
The holder is a loose fit in the cutout it slides in. On a Williams sight the holder is as long, front to rear, as the bridge is wide, it does not do anything weird. I have a Redfield here that has the holder as part of a sideways "H" with the legs of the H going on both top & bottom of the bridge, no movement on that one either.
I don't see how the bridge could have been abused enough to spread out the slot for the holder, nor can I find any evidence that the sight has been Bubba'd.
How does one get the holder & windage screw out of the bridge? I can put a machinists' rule/straightedge on the front(eye side) of the bridge and there is no gap wide enough to show light through. There is just a hint of light showing at the ends of the bridge when I do the same on the other side (where the little graduated scale is attached. If I can get the holder & windage screw out of there I'm going to try tapping it a little tighter in the middle then fit it to the holder.
