New BB Steel Carbine .44 for me!
New BB Steel Carbine .44 for me!
Hi everyone, I just received my new steel Big Boy Carbine in 44 mag. I am very impressed with the handling, smooth cycling and the nice trigger squeeze. I don't care for the rear sight though. I am thinking of putting a Weaver 1.5-3X or a rec peep. I have a Lyman 66 as well as a Williams FPS 94,336 sight (see my thread in "sights" section). I cant wait to shoot it, I'll report back when I have a chance.

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

Welcome to the forum from Va.!
About the rear sight...I have a .44 BBS carbine also and I removed the sight insert and opened it up the notch and down a touch...looks like a "U" shape.
This gives me more room around the front bead and easier to get on target. The BBS in .44 Mag is a great handy powerful shooter!
