That would require a gunsmith or a mill and buying a sight. I was conveying something that anyone could do for next to nothing in cots. Thanks though.


No, it wouldn't require any of that. The 3/8 dovetail is already there under your existing sight. A fixed sight from Track of the Wolf or Dixie Gun works isn't expensive. If any fitting is needed at all, simply file the base of the sight to fit your dovetail. (never file the dovetail) I find a triangular file works for that job. It isn't complicated or expensive and solves the problem of that spring loaded sight shifting every time it gets touched.
