Not on an 1886. I use one on a Browning 1895 30-40 Krag and a Browning 65 .218 Bee.

Had one on a Rossi 92 in 357 mag. In the right light it was OK, but in the shadows I couldn't see it at all. I went back to the standard open sights.

Finally spoke to a guy at Marble's he said they are a little tall on the 1886 so sometimes will shoot high with factory front site.

Yes, you will definetly need another front sight. Factory wont work


When Ronald Reagan was president, we had Bob Hope and Johnny Cash.
Now that Barack Obama is president, we have NO hope and NO cash.

I had one on a 92 for a minute. I found it slower to use, harder to see, and no more accurate than the standard buckhorn.
