I have a '92 Winchester trapper takedown in 357 mag. One of my favorites.

I have the trapper win 94. No issues with 38 specials in mine so far. I don't care for the peep sight on it though.
Not a Winchester but a Marlin made Montgomery Wards ‘Trapper’ in 30-30 WCF very nice rifle better than the Marlin with basket weave checkering and steel everything.Using a Weaver 4 X scope it will do 8 of 10 silhouette pigs @ 300M using the Flex Tip bullets and Levevolution powder. I would grab another Trapper of any stripe ,was the Trapper ever chambered in 32 Special ?
Veeman, I'm a big loop hater, too. As well as saddle rings and tang sights.
Whew, I feel better!

I had installed one on my Trapper 45 Colt and my Ranger 30-30, and quickly realized the mistake. Got them off soon. Not a fan of tang sights either. They just are in the way of the hand. No feeling one way or tother on rings. Most of my winchesters have Skinner peeps, which I love, or full buckhorns.
I finally ordered a ‘66-‘73 carbine rear sight from Dixie last week so when it gets here I’ll get back on it and finish the inlet work on the carbine butt.
Keep it, you wont retire on what you will get for it, besides you will have a hard time replacing it. You will regret selling.
Put my carbine sight on and shot it at last Saturday’s cas match. The sights were coarser than I like but it ran great. Had two misses on stage 4 [my only misses] with it as I just ran it too fast, slowed a hair and was clean for the last two stages. Came in first anyway. A good build.
