Pretty in pink.

It sure is pink.

Your check is, too. Thanks, again, TGR. Right now, I'm thinking of maybe putting the sight on the 357 mag marlin Cowboy. Not sure, though.

I don't mine drift the front sight over so I prefer the Lyman on my Cowboy guns

The Marble has windage adjustment if you like it . It is the best but cost more .

I have a couple Marbles on my Henrys. I like them. Having the windage adjustment is a big plus.

Windage adj is not always a plus . On my cowboy match gun I don't like windage adjustments , it is too easy for it to be moved and there is no way to sight it in a match . It is also easy for someone to moved your sight when it is in your cart or gun stand .

I've never had mine move but then you have tons more experience with them.

In the cowboy game we handle guns very ruff and move from 1 stage to 9 other stages in a wood kart . I never let anyone pickup my match gun in a match it to easy for someone to twist a adjustment screw and make you lose a match . That is why I like the fixed peeps . The one on my 44-40 92 Rossi has NEVER been adjusted it or moved in 18 yrs and over 30,000 rounds shot threw it .

I made this sight and a tool or pliers was need to make adjustment . No knobs to twist

Something to be said for durability and simplicity in a sight. Those old open sights may not have been much for accuracy, but they worked under all conditions and could take a beating.

This is a custom John Wilkes sight cost me $600 used in 1980 . I needed 1/4" adjustment a 200 yds and lots of elevation and windage adjustment too .
