ID:	251868The rear sight on my 45Colt 20” was fine, however I decided to improve it with a peep from Andy Larson @ Skinner Sights from Montana. It works with the standard front sight ta boot!

    Mine flat suks!!!

    Stamped steel. I swapped in a Marvels rear and a Lyman ivory beade front.

    I had to fit it as the dovetail was not properly cut or sized. But I got it!!

    I really like the rifle it smooth up even more then the PO had gotten it!

    VERY VERY happy with my Blue Dot/454424 load! Also shoots the LEE RD 300 well! ZERO FEEDING issues with longer bullets that my Marlins REFUSE to cycle.

    I installed a vintage wheel elevation Dockendorff on one of mine and it was perfect for my eyesight. It was on the gun when I sold it.

    I bought mine used and it came with what I believe is a Marbles tang mounted peep, which is really nice. The trouble was that I could not really see the front bead well enough. Bought a fiber optic front sight and a steel follower from stevesgunz and now it works really well. I dialed in my best 38 cast load for 25 yards with the peep for squirrel hunting and it is more than accurate enough for that.
    When you care enough to send the very best, send an ounce of lead.

    I have the Marbles on mine to it will easily shoot 5 shot clover leaf groups at 25yards with 130 rnfp and a light load of Red Dot in 38 spec. Cases a lot of fun to shoot.

    Yeah, I am using a 133 grain RNFP with 4.4 grains of HP38. Tight little groups at 25 yards and essentially no recoil.

    How would you compare these to a 94?

    Compare? Both nice actions. How they differ? The 92 was produced is an answer to Winchesters request for your pistol caliber rifle. It was a scaled down version of the Winchester 1886. The 86 was produced for the purpose of making a lever rifle that could handle large powerful cartridges like the 45-70. Scaling the design down to the 92 resulted in an action even stronger than the 86. It’s two locking lugs give it superior strength to the 94 and with big bore hot pistol loads like 45Colt, 44mag, and such, these rifles are excellent companions to Blackhawks. The 94 was designed for longer cartridges . The Rossi M 92 is available 454 Casull. That should give you an idea as to how durable the action design is.
