Howdy

I recently purchased an 1886 model, made in 1891. It’s in 40-65 caliber, with the 26″ barrel.

It currently wears a side mount receiver sight, rear dovetail filler, and a short gold bead front sight.

I’m considering putting the sights back to original. Can you help me determined what would be the correct front and rear sight for this age and caliber 1886?

Thanks.
