Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Muzzleloaders Making custom rear sights.

I really like the practical, rough and ready aspect of that brass aperture sight,....and reckon that once I had it all dialed in I'd soft solder the whole works solid.The stem looks a bit fragile, for beating around in the rocks and trees.
When you fellas are blessed with an original vintage piece, but saddened by the fact that the original "kit" is long gone,....either lost or sold separately, ...give me a holler, and discuss FINE quality recreations therefor.

Well, on advice of some other sages, I took a hard look at my LOP and dropped it from 14"ish down to 12-1/4" +/-.

Felt a little queersome at first, considering I had used it for a couple years in its prior config, but given the new 32 cal carbine length 34" 13/16AFF barrel, it actually wasn't too hard to get accustomed too.

Should be able to mount that Merit #4 right at the breech of the tang.

A 12-28 post, and a single small set nut will keep it low profile.
