Redfield Aperture sight on Win 94

[Milky]

I recently inherited a pre 64 Winchester model 94. It has a Redfield receiver mounted peep sight. However, the actual aperture disc is missing, leaving only a ghost ring which I am not very accurate with.

Does anyone have any idea what thread count and size the hole is so that I could purchase aperture discs? I cannot find very much info regarding the Redfield peep sights and sites like Brownells do not have any discs for the Redfield, only Williams and Lyman. Thanks!

The Redfield sight have been out of production for a lot of years and are now collector desired. Take it to your nearest machine shop where they do metal fabrication and have them apply their screw pitch gage to it. The should be able to tell you very quickly. Or go to Brownells and buy a screw pitch gage out of their machine tools section.

OR, buy a Williams or Lyman or Merit aperature.
They are most all 7/32"x40 TPI.
They come in long shank (LS) & short shank (SS) length.
Your Redfield is very likely a SS.

Here is a cross-referance chart so you can check for your sight.
