    6a receiver peep


    Hello all, I am new to the site but have heard good things about the community you guys have here.

    I recently purchased a Savage 6a that has a place machined into the receiver for a peep sight, the only problem is that it doesnt have the sight. Do any of you guys have any suggestions where this part may be found? I've checked numrich and they have a Williams 5d receiver sight listed on the 6a page but not in stock. If any of you have other suggestions I would appreciate it. Or if you have one laying around that you would sell PM me and I'll get back in touch with you.

    Thanks in advance

    One large hole or two smaller holes on the side?

    If it's two holes you'll be looking for a WFC 150 peep sight, if it's one large hole then it's gonna be a bit more difficult to find. I'll have a look around right now and see if I can't find you a lead on one though.

    Haha, was doing a search and found an old post by me with pics of my model 7.

    Here's what the one hole sight looks like. A williams won't work.

    If I had a spare I would but that gun is cherry and I can't bring myself to take it off. Have never even sighted it in yet.
