---

To date we have mounted this sight on the BLR long and short action and the BAR in a long action.  

Distance between the mounting holes for the STEEL RECEIVER MODELS is approx. 3.20" (actual spacing is 3.190") 

For the LIGHT WEIGHT alloy frame models, hole spacing is approx. 3.30".

This sight utilizes the center two mounting holes on top of the rifle receiver.  Screw size is 6-48

Please measure your rifle's hole spacing to insure proper fit.

NO GUN SMITHING required for installation.  The sight comes complete with SCREWS and WRENCHES required for mounting.

           (Ships with our Standard .096" aperture installed)

Due to the thousands of these rifles made over the years, we cannot provide a "How tall of a front sight will I need" answer.  There have been quite a few variations in barrel diameter, caliber, barrel length, ramp heights, etc etc, which when added to the other variables of shooter/gun/load combinations make front sight selection a process.  This "process" is well discussed on our FRONT SIGHT PAGE, Our FAQ
page, Technical Page, and is spelled out by common sense.

We have not mounted this sight on the LIGHT WEIGHT rifles with the aluminum receivers.  IF the hole spacing is the same and the screw size is 6-48 (Common mounting screw size for Brownings) then this sight will fit.  

Please:  Before writing or calling and asking:  "Will this fit a Caliber
 " ??? " with serial number " ??? "  made in " ???? ", measure YOUR specific rifle.  If it meets the specs listed above, our sight will fit.

               (Shown here in our Optional "BLACK GOLD")

I've found our Skinner 1885 High/Low Wall sight very effective in the field and in the brush alike.  For a great "Open Country" rifle, choose a flat shooting caliber (mine is a 25-06) that allows a point blank hold to 300 yards.  

The SKINNER 1885 sight mounts in the two screw holes located on the barrel just forward of the receiver.  (Screws and wrenches provided) Front sight heights are unique, individual, and subjective to many variables.  (Please see our FAQ and Front Sight pages for more info)

Some rifles will require either barrel dovetailing (easily accomplished by a competent Gunsmith) or drilling and tapping for a ramp/sight combo.

                              APERTURE SIZES

      The SKINNER® BLR - BAR "EXPRESS" sight is shipped with our
                      STANDARD .096" aperture INSTALLED.

       Up to 5 APERTURE sizes are available on our aperture page.

  We recommend the .096" (as shipped)
for most hunting and shooting applications.  Finer if you are target shooting in bright light, larger if hunting in dim light or dark timber.  Remember, the aperture can always be removed for a "Ghost Ring" effect (.200" dia. hole)
