    wtb peep ( receiver ) sight for winchester 94

    As the heading says I want to buy a peep sight for a pre 64 model 94 Winchester.

    It has been drilled and tapped. The screw spacing is 0.420.

    Thanks for any help:

    If you are looking to buy a new sight and you have the standard holes on the left side of the receiver I believe the williams FP-94 and 5D-94 should both work, the 5d is the budget model without click adjustments which makes it harder to sight in, but it's only $37 on midway right now. The FP runs about $60 I think. I just put a 5P on a pre-64 a couple months ago and in order to be sighted in 1" high at 100 yards it would have also needed a different front sight, which you can get as a package deal with the peep sight from williams. If you would like links to these just send me a PM.

    If you get a Williams, get the one with clicks. The budget model is a PITA.

    That is good to know. I have looked at both of those on line but no one not even Williams give much tech, data.

    Do you know the hole spacing of those sights ?

    Don't know the spacing but they are made for the gun I have installed many of them when I had a shop.

    Mine is about a 1945 vintage and I don't think it was factory drilled although I could be wrong.

    I have determined that my winchester is drilled to a factory pattern.

    I am wanting to buy a peep sight that will fit a Winchester 94 top eject.

    Who has one that they will sell ?

    LGS has a Williams peep sight with calibrations. carries a tag; "for Winchester or Marlin", priced at $25, if that is of interest to you. Appears to mount on the side of the reciever with 2 screws, included.

    It would be of interest but a friend tried to mount one from a 94 Winchester on a Marlin and it would not fit .I do not know the vintage of the Marlin.

    Thanks for the post.
