I have recently acquired some original Wincheser Semi Buckhorn sights , all missing the slider and the small screw that holds the slider . I can make the sliders easily but I need to know the dimensions of the screw so I can either order or have some made .
If you have this info I would greatly appreciate getting it . I cant find it in any of the sight books .

Years ago I remember seeing someone selling the replacement slider and screws.

I wonder if these would work?

The screw looks to big and is not countersunk.

I removed a screw from a Marbles sight ant tried it in one of the original Winchester sights .
The Marbles screw is too small in diameter for the Winchester sight so have ruled that out .
Thanks guys and keep em comin.
