    marbles 99 tang sight


    These sight are great, but I do not see a good way to "lock" the settings. They are easily moved when handling the gun and raising the sight to shooting position. Am I missing something? I guess i am spoiled by Skinner sights. They have set screws and when locked they thy will not move.

    There should be a small lock ring on the stem. Sometimes they like to come loose!

    If he's talking about set screws it's one of the newer tang sights that Marbles put out, the old vintage versions used the bottom locking ring to snug up against the top elevation adjustment.

    Watching but haven't been posting alot, I'll be changing that from now on..........hopefully.

    Turkey season is coming and I've got a brand new Beretta A-400 that needs patterned.
