Question on the 22" 45/70 Gov't barrel
« on: June 02, 2006, 01:52:32 AM »
I sent my ultra hunter back to get the 45/70 Gov't barrel fitted and told them to substitute the iron sights for the scope rail and hammer spur. ok the front sight is doved tailed will the factory leave the sight in or do i have to find something to fill it in not sure how the rear sight's put on ? :?

The 22" .45-70 accessory barrel comes with screw on iron barrel sights standard you don't have to ask for sights, no dovetail up front. The 32" BC accessory barrel comes with no sights and the front sight location is a 3/8" dovetailed slot.

All NEF/H&R rifles come drilled and tapped for a scope rail, the 2 rear mount holes are used for a rear aperture sight.

      Thank's tim that's what i needed to know so all i have to do is put screws in the holes where the front sight was or maybe the factory will do it for me sence i told them i wanted the scope rail and hammer spur instead of the open sights.

Yes, that's how I ordered my first .45-70 barrel, they put a filler screws in all the holes. In restrospect tho, I should have just ordered the scope rail extra, the sights cost the better part of $50 and there's no extra charge for them, just for the rail and hammer ext. :wink:
