My grandfather had this beautiful Drilling and that gun had a little fold up rear sight ... and which seemed to work pretty well at the time.

I am now thinking of installing a folding rear sight on one of my SxS shotguns ... but I am having a hard time finding parts ... :(

What I am looking for is something like in this picture ..... preferably a U-notch sight.

Does anybody know of a place where one could order a sight like this?

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
 
If it's a drilling then one of the barrels was likely a rifle barrel. That's what that site was for. Mostly those are custom to the gun. The idea of re purposing another site is likely your best bet unless you want to pay to have one custom made.

Thanks for the input guys .... and yes, it is for a deer gun .... one barrel buckshot and the other barrel slug out to 50 - 80 meters.

Sounds like a neat gun. Post some pics when you get it fixed up.
I recall a thread where one fella was looking for a sxs with one rifled bore slug barrel and the other smooth. That's a great idea too.
