    Savage Model 24v 222/20 Front Sight


    I'm missing the front sight to my 24v in .222/20 ga. Was wondering if anyone knew of a good place to get a replacement? Preferably metal but would live with plastic if that is all I could find. Was wondering if anyone knew the specific part number or what I should be searching for, specifically.

    Thanks

    Which style of sight do you need? A couple different styles were used on the 24V over the years. Some had the sight integral with the barrel band, others were a ramp sight that mounted directly to the barrel where the barrel band didn't fully wrap around the top barrel. Below is a photo of the latter.

    Thanks for the info. I believe I'll need one that mounts directly to the barrel, but will have to check when I get home for sure.

    Sorry for the delay, just got back around to checking on this and found out that my rifle does not have a band. Is this common or am I missing a piece? It looks so clean around there that without any knowledge of the rifle I'd swear it came that way. Looks to be a small screw in the barrel that can be used to attach the front sight, it sits flush with the barrel surface. Is that screw going to be the correct one to use for attaching a new sight, or will I need to purchase a new front sight screw as well?

    Thanks for any info, as you can tell I've very new to this style of rifle. I can provide pictures if that would help as well.
