Peep sight for Marlin 336Y?

Post by nralover »

Is there a peep sight for the 336Y that will allow me to use the factory front sight?

Dunno about the 'Y' model specifically, but I've kept the front sight when using Williams "FP" sights. The Marlins that are 'side-tapped' can use the FP-94 model, which has a bit less on top of the receiver, but all the Marlins can sue the FP-336, which mounts in the scope-base holes (I use the front holes, many folks use the rear ones). You have to remove or fold-down the rear factory sight, but you can 'rough-in' the FP after installation by lining it up with the factory rear before removing it.

I really like the fine gold-bead Marlin front sights, with an FP 'ghost-ringed' on the rear.

Lots of 'peep pics' here if you are interested - http://www.levergunscommunity.com/viewt ... &p#p390174

If your Marlin is not side-tapped, but you want to mount the FP-94, it isn't that hard to drill/tap for one yourself. Piece of cake if you already have a drill press. http://www.levergunscommunity.com/viewt ... =1&t=25689
