You can order it with a scope rail instead of the sights if you want, I would order a rail in addition to the sights for a little more versatility. The sight it comes with will be the Williams WGOS blade sight. All rifle barrels are drilled and tapped for a scope rail with the exception of the 45/410.
The Ultra rail is an inch longer than the standard rail and helps if mounting a longer scope which probably wouldn't apply to a scope on a 45-70, your call.
