Where to find replacement older Rossi rear sight, .390?

Post by 1886 »

I have a couple of older, presafety Rossi 92 rifles. I would like to replace the rear sights but I am unable to locate any that will fit the large .390" dovetail. Any leads? Thanks, 1886.

Thanks. I am familiar with the Skinners. They are great sights. Any info about a buckhorn sight that will fit the .390 dovetail? I seem to think Marbles made one at one time. 1886.

Hmmm, when I've emailed him sometimes it takes him several days to get back to me. Have you tried a phone call?

I've had the same question. A year or so ago Steve responded to me that he's worked up a put-together semi (I believe) on the stock base. I've meant to send mine off to him , just haven't gotten around to yet. Yes, Marbles used to have one or two specific to the older Rossis' .390
PS - just saw that Steve's checked in.

Hi Steve, Your voice mail said you are busy due to health issues. You have always been very prompt getting back to me. I know you are backed up so I am not concerned. I knew you would get back to me when you freed up some time! I will fire off another e-mail. Thanks all. If there is a Marbles unit floating around that will fit the .390 dovetail, I would love to get a couple. Thanks, 1886.
