I have a Rossi 92 with 16" barrel in 45LC. I am thinking of getting a Marbles Bullseye to replace the rear sight and a fiber optic to replace the front. My queston is to anyone who has this combo what height fiber optic front sight did you use?
Thanks!

did that with a 16" 94 357 and used stock height for the front sight. Lined them up to marks on tape and spot on, no adjustment needed. put one on a Marlin 37 with the original front sight and same same, worked fine.
don't know if it would work that way for a 45 though

Re: Height of front sight with Marbles Bullseye
Honestly don't remember what heights I've used, but I've put Marble's Bullseye sights on three Rossi 16" leverguns (357, 44, and 45 Colt), and I think I used the 'stock' sight on the 357 (but drilled it through front-to-back with a Dremel then made a file-notch or two on the top, and inserted a fiberoptic, to make my own 'fiber-sight'), and I think the 44 and 45 Colt I wound up raising the front (by replacing them) about 1/20" or so.
Front sights are inexpensive enough I usually buy several that 'bracket' the height I think I'll need, so I always have spares.
