    Question about MVA tang sight bases on RB tangs

    I have a Rolling Block and would like to mount this: https://montanavintagearms.com/produ...base=Remington
    I understand MVA knows what they're doing but there are about 25 sight base options and since they're fairly specific, does anyone know for certain that the "Remington" base will fit my Lone Star tang? Mr. Higginbotham is no longer with us and MVA customer service line is closed until Monday.

    Measure your hole spacing center to center and you will have to know what your thread diameter and pitch is.
    I just ordered one for my Hepburn it has a 10/32 thread.

    MVA has a chart listing the various spacing for tang sight bases, this may help: https://montanavintagearms.com/wp-co...le-Spacing.pdf

    Thanks! Most vendors/manufacturers seem to have a ZERO return policy for sights, I wanted to make sure I had the right info before buying anything.
