Maybe I should send you my sight off the Lyman Trade Rifle and you could make me one like that.. 

).If anyone wants to give it a try, shoot me an e-mail with a phone number and the best times to call, and I'll talk you through the process.

Actually I have a friend a few miles away that is a machinist/jack of all trades, that can make about anything he wants out of metal. The tools and things he has is very impressive. He's made parts for my old machinery when I could no longer purchase them because of age. I am sure I can show him a picture of your sight and he will duplicate it. And he is a black powder shooter, so it should interest him a great deal...
thanks for the idea. I have the second sight for the rifle laying around here. Might as well get some use out of it.

Could this be done with the sight on the GM barrels it is a lot different then the Buckhorn On the GPR I am stuying the options I love peep sights. I was very impressed with your Zouave and this proves you are a inovator.

No I thought you might have bought one of those 21 inch barrels we we all so hot after maybe dave can post one for you They are quite different than the buckhorn. I don't have a clue how to post a picture.

The sights on the Green Mountain Barrels are fiber optic Tru Glo fiber optic sights.. They would not take a peep sight all that well, but the sights themselves are excellent.
