Does anyone know of a ladder tang sight that will work on a Lyman Great Plains Rifle?
There are some that could have the base modified. Will any work without modifying the mounting angle?
My percussion GPR has a .40 bore 16" twist barrel and could use a tang peep.

petersoli had one in cableas catalog a few years ago that had an adjustable base for the angle but i dont know if it is still available. their is an expensive one called baldwin and they have an adjustable base also. you will probably have to drill and tap your tang but that is easy. brownells has many for lever guns and one might be the right angle. also on a cheaper shorter staffed one i had i changed the angle my self and locked it in by silversoldering it at that angle. good luck

I'd look at Dixie Gun Works website and see if they have something that interests you.

Try one of these I think they are adjustable for vertical.
