Rear sight, low long base longrifle style for 13/16″ or 7/8″ barrels,wax cast steel

Description

Original longrifles were nearly always fitted with “fine” (low) sights, in the mistaken belief that the low sights reduced sighting error. Too low for good target work, use it to restore or replicate an original antique rifle. Wax cast with a 1″ dovetail, about .535″ wide for use on a 13/16″ or 7/8″ barrel. Dovetail to a depth of .050″. Height from the bottom of the dovetail to the top of the sight notch is 0.26″.
