I've been reading about the receiver sights that came on the 23B, but are there any fairly common peeps that will fit the original holes on the 23B? (top or side)

thx in advance

I've never seen one besides the Lyman but wait a bit, maybe Gene has stumbled across something different in his search.

The same Savage peep on the model 19 and 23 should fit your 23B as well.

it's got a very small side mount Lyman peep on it, but the friction lever for locking the position doesn't tighten up anymore and it has a small flip down insert for the aperture(no idea what model the sight is, I've looked an can't find anything similar)

It'll be a Lyman model 42 SS.

it's a pretty good sight, if it would only stay tight
