 You could also grind your present factory sight down to shorten it - a couple of members have done that to their Henrys in order to get a narrower front sight post vice a larger bead...
Thank you for this idea! It worked perfectly.
Windage was was perfect, and filing it brought it up nice.
So I ended up not using the Skinner sight. I guess I'll have it, in case I need it.
