Uberti 1876--Oh well, stuff happens I guess

Just jook my Uberti 1876 45-60 to the range for the first time today. New condition, but bought it pre-owned. Haven't had time to install a tang sight, so the buckhorn and front sight were the usual fuzzballs with my "mature" eyesight, but really just wanted to test fire it and enjoy the d...

Re: Skinner Sights

Yes. They are excellent quality, a simple design that works. Has both windage and elevation adjustments. The only limitation, if you would call it that, is that isn't very repeatable if you intend shooting at various distances--there are no scales per se--you would have to count turns of the apertur...

Re: New Frontier!

Did you load .427/.428 or .430 in the 44-40? I've been using .428 in mine and can't seem to get it to shoot. Looks like yours is right on.

Re: Harbor Freight's 60" Hardwood Work Bench

Re: A First-Class Tang Sight for my Browning 1886 SRC 45-70

Kirk, you mentioned you shot the sight at 100 yds. Do you have an idea of the maximum range of the sight, i.e 200, 300 or?

Winchester 1885 front sight removal?!

First post on Leverguns, sorry it has to be a plea for help. Has anyone removed the front dovetailed sight from one of the Winchester 1885 replicas? I have two, 30-30 and 38-55, and want to replace the factory front sights with Shavers. The factory sights will simply not come out. I've tried everyth...
