While waiting for the Form 4 to clear, trying to finalize what this little critter will look like.

At this moment I'm trying to figure out the front sight. The barrel has been cut so that there's about 1.25 in. between the barrel band and where the stock ends and threading begins.

The barrel is thick enough that my machinist buddy could cut a 3/8 dovetail and slide a regular Ruger front sight insert into it and it'd be the right height for the factory rear.

I want something a little snazzier looking, as if Bill Ruger had decided to sell factory walnut stocked SBR Carbines in the mid-'70s.

So wondering if anyone knows the length of a 1/8th-in. tall Williams Shorty Ramp? I'm thinking that would look very classy as the front sight config.

I did call Williams Gun Sights up and was told there "sight guy" wasn't in today. Just trying to see if any of y'all has one mounted that could give me the length.
