Nice looking rifle Rosey! I like the short magazines. Tough finding 38-55 Win brass. I found a couple hundred once fired 375 Winchester cases. They work good! I use a Lyman .375 mould. I throws a .378 dia boolit. Have fun!
Will the lyman tang sight for the 336, 1894, 1895 fit the 93? It is factory drilled and tapped on the tang that are 1 1/8" center to center with 8-40 threads.
Thanks,
Rosewood

The Lyman #2? Should do, give Lyman a call.

Personally I find the tang mounted sights a bit uncomfortable with the grip. Lately I've been
shooting with the Marbles Bullseye sight, a double ring barrel dovetail mount.

I use Tang sights on our old Marlins and just accept the gains over the loss of a little comfort.

Rosewood,
I'd recommend the longer Bullseye sight, it's just a question of where the dovetail is on the barrel. I found the shorter one was
substantially more difficult to adjust. Assuming here that your old Marlin is the same dovetail placement as mine, the longer
one works great for me. And at $20 from Midway, it's an affordable option. Works well for me.
