T/C rear sight

[ppg1949]

A few Renegades had a small sight that had about 5/8ths inch hole spacing. Most have the standard spacing that’s about 7/8ths inch. Early Hawkens had holes spaced about 1 & 1/8th.

White Mountains and Penn Hunters mostly had the Renegade spacing but some probably also had the Hawken spacing.

Probably a couple other spacings on some other models.

bubba 50, thanks for the explanation.

This is one for the TC and Green Mountain barrels that used to be around.

I like that one. Wonder if they are still out there?

Don't know. I think those folks in Pagosa Springs shut down a long while back.

The drop on the stock comb is pretty high with the original sight. Installing a lower sight may not work for some people. Reworking the but stock to a lower an more traditional shape will help. It will also look more traditional, the original shape is modern.

Oh! was that a House of Muskets product?

I was just trying to look them up a couple days ago but there web presence is no longer there.

The make/made the Treso products and they seem to be still around.

Don't know if they made the sights, but that is where I got 'em from.
When I say that I think they shut down, seems to me that the last time I spoke with them (it's been a long time) perhaps they were stopping the retail end of business... not exactly sure, but there was something like that.

Of course you can go to the Hawken Shoppe and take a look at the conversion sight offered there.

This was my solution, not sure is going to put a finish on it or leave it

I've got two of those sights on T/C rifles. They're great.

What I put on a T-C Pennsylvania Hunter. Drilled a hole for the screw and it worked fine. Windage can be adjusted to a point by turning the sight a tad bit left or right.

Where did you find that sight? thanks.

Looks to me like a rear sight made for a 1" dove tail slot with a hole drilled for the screw and mounted on top of the barrel instead of in a dove tail slot.

 

[Grenadier1758]

I would get the rear sight offered by the Hawken shop.

I think it looks good and it covers both the screw holes.

I made it

And mine came from Track of the Wolf, with the 3/8" dovetail filed off and a hole bored through like Grimord said. I must say that I like CTShooter's better at this point!
