Skinner Peep Sight for SS Rossi R92 44 Mag

Post by tiger1 »

I received my Skinner barrel mounted peep sight for my stainless 44 Mag. It came with .125 Aperture which is kind of small but before I order a larger aperture I am going to try this one or just use it without the aperture and use it as a host ring. Anyway I had to do some filing and fitting to get it on and centered but it does look nice. I will try it out next week and update my results. I have several hand loads to try out.

Not at all surprised you had to do some fitting Rossi dovetails tend to vary. I wonder if they are cut with the closest metric cutter to 3/8"'

I have a Skinner Express on my 1895 45/70 and it is a great sight and a fine piece of machining.

Andy from Skinner Sights told me to be sure and order the .390" dovetail exclusive for the Rossi R92.

I ordered a taller front sight from Skinner .010” oversized. I removed enough from underside for tight interference fit:
