I need to replace the front sight on a Marlin 1894c lever action. Following the good advice on some other threads I have removed the old sight from left to right. So far, so good. I would like to replace it with a Williams fire sight.
How are these measured? On the midway page they give specifications for height and width. Width is fairly straightforward. My vernier says the old sight was .250.
Height though bothers me. When they measure height is the dovetail included, or is it just the portion from the base (sitting on top of the dovetail) to the top of the sight?
I hope the question is clear.
