False Tang on Handi??
« on: December 14, 2009, 06:57:52 AM »
I'm the new kid on the block here.  Long time shooter, but delving into unknown territory, and looking for help and advice.

Does anyone have any info or pics of the installation of a false tang on a Handi-Rifle to allow the solid attachment of a mid-range tang sight??

Welcome! Spend some time in the FAQs and Help sticky if you haven't found it yet, theirs a link a thread on Long Range Sights, one of which by GBO member Handirifle is exactly what you're looking for, his was done by Lee Shaver. There are also other methods of mounting Vernier sights on the wrist with inserts epoxied in place, thats in the FAQs also.

That sounds like what I'm looking for, BUT, where the heck is the FAQ icon??  (I'm not real 'puter literate)
