Hi,
I'm new to the forum and this is my first post.
I am thinking about putting different sights on my new marlin 1895cb and would appreciate any advice I could get. I am currently leaning towards a marble's tang sight. I've been told that you have to worry about getting hit in the eye with it on a big caliber like 45/70, though. I've also been told I should go for a receiver mounted peep sight instead. How much better are any of these than the factory sights? I don't want to put a scope on it for various reasons. I plan to use the rifle for deer and, hopefully, elk hunting. I'm not into cowboy action shooting yet but am interested in it someday when I can afford the necessary guns.
Thanks for your help,
Zeke
