Hi gents,
Its been s loooooong since I posted on here. Like...5 years, Im guessing. Anyhow, i just acquired another barrel for my J-DL (black). Its 22wmr/410, whi I havent owned before. The barrel (M code) fits my W code action perfectly, but there's one thing sad, in that instead of a stsndard dovetail rear sight, the sight it wears is attached by the tinyest little groove.
As usual imm not happy with how low the sight sits, so i want it higher. But I want an express mount sight, not a groove top peep (I have had RE-24's), and my preference is to not put a scope on this one.
Any options? Has anyone ever widened that tiny groove? Or are there other (higher profile) choices which fit it?
Thx and rgds,
Sentry

Wow, I see my status is "rank stranger," and that I have no post history? That hurts.
Did CAS purge everything in a migration?

So...tiny dovetail? Anybody dealt with this? Widened it to standard so you could use somwthing like the Marbles semi-buckhorn I have on my other barrel set? Or, are there tiny dovetail sight options?

You should try Ebay for the sight. Two weeks ago I saw a 22 over 410 with the rear sight brazed on. It wasn't looking too good.
