Flip-up tang site for a Muzzleloader?
« on: April 11, 2003, 08:14:49 PM »
I have a T/C 50cal. Firestorm. Does anyone know if they make a  flip-up tang site  with adj. wind/elevation that will work on it?

      Thanks for your Help

They used to, but I think they've discontinued it in favor of the Lyman-type they sell now, that doesn't flip up (or down), it's like a receiver sight, it's always there.
The old one was built like a very short Creedmoor-type sight, with a lead screw for elevation and a "loosen-and-drift" eyepiece for windage. I don't know where you can find one today, but if you really check every available supplier, you might find one.

Hello all!   :D

Harpy,

May I suggest you check the website that is listed below for Pedersoli Creedmore Sights; I believe these Tang Sights are what you are looking for.
