I'm looking to purchase pietta 1858 .36 target sights 6.5 in barell steel. Does anyone know where I can purchase this new?
 
I wasn't aware that Pietta made an 1858 in .36-caliber with target sights. Do you seek replacement sights?
I have an Uberti-made 1858 Remington in .36 caliber, with modern factory target sights, that dates to 1973.
While the .44 caliber Remington is common with target sights, the .36 caliber is rare. I know of two, and one of them is mine.
I understand that a company in Canada imports .36 Remingtons with modern target sights, but I'm unsure who makes it. I do know that they cannot export from Canada to the U.S. No one offers a .36 Remington with target sights to American shooters.
My own .36 target is not very accurate. From a benchrest at 25 yards, I get 3 to 4" groups at best. My fixed-sight Uberti 1858 .44 will put six .454 balls or Lee 200 gr. conicals into 1-1/2 inches.
