Henry lever peep sight?

Anyone know where I can find a peep sight for a rimfire Henry lever gun in Canada?

Any 22 rimfire peep that attaches to a dovetail will work. It won't look as good though, and you won't find one made in Canada. Williams, Skinner, New England, etc. are the only quality options. You might find some Chinese junk on Amazon that'll work.

I doubt anyone will have a Skinner in stock, but you should find a Williams sight set somewhere here easy enough.
 
I have a Henry 22 with the skinner sight and don’t really love it. I mean, it’s better than the stock rear notch but wasn’t worth the money. My other levers will be keeping the rear notch or buckhorn sights
 
Williams WGRS 54. $139.95 at Amazon.ca, which is pretty pricey........:(

It can be found for less money if one searches.......:)

I have several of them. Although I love Skinner Sights and the great American fellow who makes them in Montana, I prefer these Williams Brand Peep Sights.

Midway USA has them at a great price, but one needs an American shipping address. $42.99 USD on sale now!........:)

Looks like you will have to change the front sight as well, if you install that sight.

Yes, a taller front sight is usually required.

I use a Williams or Tru-Glo fiber optic front sight for ole' aging eyes!.......:)

Makes the rifle a little tack driver though, as one can see the front sight extremely well, especially in shade or low light conditions.......:)
 
I might get away with the standard front sight, if I use the Skinner peep sight

The Skinner peep sight I installed on my Henry Big Boy works very well with the standard front sight.

The only downside are the Canadian customs. The last Skinner sight was stuck with customs in Mississauga for 3 months. Mississauga is a real Blackhole!
