Non-adjustable Renegade sight
« on: February 22, 2011, 10:59:27 AM »
My newest project designed to further" primitize" my Renegade is this non-adjustable rear sight I fashioned,This one is mounted on the .50 barrel but will go to the .54 barrel with a little more work[I may add a buckhorn appeture and perhaps "purty" it up just a bit more]I also have an adjustable one in the works that is a copy of a Hawken sight.The T/C sights are good sights but they just don't "look" very historic .Why not order replacements?I've got more time and materials than $ right now and I like makin' things.

I may go out and burn some powder today[However it's+ 2.F with a good wind out there] ,I repolished it and moved it to the .54 barrel, now i need to make one for the ..5o .When I took the factory sight off ,I found the support spring was out of place and lying on it's side under the ramp and was partly smashed,I guess thats why I was having adjustment issues with it! well, I don't have any problems like that now!But,NOW I might have to get a gun for that sight!
