Are these available as parts, original or repro? Or am I going to have to replace the entire Express sight on my button mag 25-35?

Jim manufactures and replaces leaves but it may take a while!  Give him a call.

With a town name like Winchester, it can’t be all bad…. Would it be best for him to replace the leaves on my sight? It doesn’t appear to be a particularly robust design…

His website is still up, though not updated in about 4 or 5 years.

Saw that… That is a BEAUTIFUL Centennial Rifle…. If the stars in their courses ever line up, I intend to get a repro and make it into a short rifle to hunt with. 26″ is just too much barrel to haul round the East TN woods…

Hey Hokie – I’m hanging in there and trying to keep the powder dry.  That has been pretty difficult as we have had a bunch of rain and a considerable amount of show here in the Oregon desert.  Snow pack on Mount Bachelor is at about 135% of normal which is very good for the up coming fire season as well as the hay farmers and skiers!

Been busy with my latest project which is building up a 1955 Ford F100 pick-up for my grandsons 16th birthday.  I’ll try to post a picture of the finished product:

Reduce the size of the photos to under 125 kb’s and they’ll upload.

Update: Just heard back from the gent and he doesn’t make the leaves anymore. Other options?
