McInnis, I am of the opposite opinion you have in regards to sights.

I'd much rather have an aperature sight instead of a semi-buckhorn. Or, is there a particular weakness in the Henry OEM aperature?


I did not say I prefer the semi-buckhorn site. But, when Henry modified the reinforcement of the magazine tube, they replaced the aperture site with the buckhorn. I don't know why, as replacement of the sites has nothing to do with the flaw in the magazine, but it's what they did.

So what I'm telling everyone is that if they find a Henry 45-70 with an aperture site, it's of the old design and they'll have to send it back to the factory for modification.
