I’m looking for a Model 44A sight for a 1892 saddle ring carbine in .44 WCF.

Thanks,

Gus

I have one but it is pretty rough and priced accordingly. What is the condituon of your carbine? Can you port a couple of pictures?

Rick,

It”s in good condition for it’s age (mfg. 1901). At some point the barrel was replaced wirh a .44 WCF Model 92 factory barrel. When I bought it I also got the original barrel, also in .44 WCF, but it’s bore condition is very poor with no visible rifling. I imagine the collector’s value is lost, but I enjoy shooting it just the same.

Is the sight you have a good match for this rifle’s
