[QUOTE="egriton, post: 2018984, member: 26197"] I have a Browning Buckmark Hunter and have switched out the rear sight for a Williams fiber optic firesight. Because they sit a bit higher than the factory sights, the front sight is too low. It may be that a Williams shorty ramp with the appropriate dovetail sight will work as a replacement. I phoned Williams -- no help; I also phoned Marble sights (who makes the front sight for Browning) -- also no help. Dawson Precision, who makes custom sights, can do it, but a 4-6 week wait. So, I'm hoping to find a gunsmith with various Williams sight components who can find the right pair and/or modify a sight for some other gun to fit on my Buckmark. If there's a smith out there, or someone knows of one, please reply or PM me. I need a sight that from barrel to fiber optic bead = .5625", screw mounted (hole is about .75" from front of sight), barrel is approx .75".[IMG]https://www.okshooters.com/data/MetaMirrorCache/i49.tinypic.com_4vljr7.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
