IMHO, a small gold bead, as sold by Lyman or Marbles. If you do more 'target' shooting than hunting the globe with the inserts is very good, but for hunting that globe tends to obscure things for me.

Alrighty then, i have some things to try.
Surly my local gun store will have some screws, he builds custom rifles.
I like the globe looks but i also think it would be a problem hunting.


Thanks Quick  and lonewolf for the leads
and gcrank1 for the heads up about the bead
If you have Handi questions why go elswhere, maybe the factory does
need to listen in.

I just got off the phone with parts as to getting The shorter sight. He seemed to think I was looking for the carbine sight. Is that the shorter globe sight or is it a blade sight?

The Carbine sight is a Marbles blade, .570" IIRC.

Just go with Buffalo Arms, Track of the Wolf, or Brownells for the Lyman 17A, .404 height.
Obviously the H&R CSRs aint got a clue.

Midsouth has the best price on it, dunno how much they want to ship it tho, I've never ordered a small item from them.
