What would be the standard rear sight on an 1885 rifle in 32-40, oct. bbl. ser#2736.

Henry, I think it would be the standard sporting sight. It has to be one of the early ones without the extra adjustable leaf and screw.
Standard sporting rear–no special sight for this model, if that’s what you’re getting at.
OK that’s kind of what I thought , thanks for the reply.

A Rocky Mountain Sporting sight was standard.

Wouldn’t that era sight need to have the serrations on the sides as opposed to smooth sides? Roger B
