Thats right free, free, free,

I have a Marlin 1894p and a Winnie 1894 30-30 pre war nice gun! What I did was take out the rear sight blade tha held in with a single tiny screw, don't loose it, then make a new one from a piece of tin can lid or what ever you can find thats the same thickness. drill a 1/16 th. hole near the top of the new blade, you will need to bevel the edges with a file as the old ones were. Paint it black or blue it, sight in at 25 yds. and enjoy!!!

Or you could buy $130 Marbles, or pay bills or spend it on ammo.

Make 2 or 3 with different size holes to fit your shooting needs.

I would like to see a picture posted of your new peep sight installed on the gun. If possible :grin:

I have not a clue as to put a picture on the web. but if you look at your current sight but with a small hole not a notch you will see. You can go one step farther by putting black electrical tape over the blade with a small hole in it you will get a good idea what it will look like, with nothing lost. If the hole is not perfectly round it will be slightly blured.

only problem with the theroy is that the peep needs to be close to your eye to work correctly. I dont think your going to get much light through it with it mounted out on the barrel
