Default RE: Marlin 336SS sights??

AQssuming you are going to use the original sights, if there's a hood on the front sight, remove it and put it away so you know where it is if you ever want to trade or sell the gun. If you want a better sight setup for hunting, I'd try to find one of the old Redfield "Sourdough" type sights, or a large, highly visible bead, for the front, then put a good receiver sight, like a Williams Foolproof, on the rear. Take the rear open sight off, put a blank in the slot to protect it, and save the open sight to re-install if necessary. If you are not wedded to iron sights, put a low-powered, lightweight scope on the thing! This is best for hunting!!

Keep yore powder dry!!
