Puma 1892
I gave my dad my 1892 .357 mag for Christmas. I was planning on getting one this year sometime to replace it. Well I found a nice looking 20 inch barrel rifle with a nice action for $250. A little high but what the hey Anyway it has what looks like tapped holes for a tang sight. Does anyone know who makes these sights for the Puma or Rossi 92s? Any help is apprciated.

I didn't know that they came pre-drilled.
There is some info that may be useful: http://www.stevesgunz.com/SightSG.htm
The appropriate Marbles tang sight is # 579-009-807 @ $125 from Brownells.

Any tang sight that will work on a Winchester M. 92 will work on that gun. I think the hole spacing is approximately 2 3/16". There should only be one extra hole, as the tang screw is also used as the rear sight hole. Any other combination of holes (more than one) is not standard, but a sight may be available that fits the non standard spacing. $250.00 is a very good price if it's not totally trashed.

If you got it for $250 you stole it.
You guys are in for some sticker shock. I recently got my 2008 dealer price sheets for three different company's. For the standard all blue 20" round barrel carbines prices start at $410 wholesale before S&H. On average it looks like everything went up $30 to $40 depending on the model. Crazy part is the brass frames cost more than the stainless now.
As for the D&T-ed hole it your's, the rossi oct rifles come with it, the round barrel carbines don't. If you got an octagon barrel for $250 go back and kiss that guy.
I like this W&E adjustable tang sight. It's heavier built than the marbles and will completely cover the tang safety on the Miruko/Win 92's.
