Well heck, Don. How about when I come up we beat some sights into those slots. Claw hammer, no copper drift, and preferrably after a snort of Sailor Jerry's.

I've sold rifles that wore receiver sights which I stuck their original barrel sights back into their slots for posterity sake. (No claw hammers were employed.)
