Gentlemen,
I recently purchased a Skinner Express sight for my marlin guide in 45-70. It is the stainless model and the junky buckhorn just looked terrible on it. Not to mention it seemed bent and chanted from the factory.
I haven't had this gun for very long and only shot maybe 2 boxes of shells from it. This is because I could not get it dialed in. I believe this is because of the buckhorn. I know the remlins have had their issues, but this one looks ok minus the buckhorn that is now gone.
Does anyone have the express sight? Do you know if it will work with the factory front? Skinner states this is the best sight to have a chance of retaining the front sight. Not apposed to changing the front, but I like the hooded brass bead look.
I havent had a chance to shoot it yet to see where it hits.
