Don' know if you can tell from my lousy picture taking, however it looks like the front site will need a drift to the left a bit.
Skinner was also very loose when it came out of the box. NBD though. They tightened it up at the GS with the supplied allen wrench.

Congrats, Mark!

All the best with your new SGC. If you quickly find out what I have about this Henry rifle, all will be well.
:D It just works! :D

Oh!.. almost forgot to ask, if my pick is good enough for ya'll to see what Im talking about, ( front sight ). Do ya think I should go ahead and drift it left, or wait till first range test? By the way, is there a technique or tool that would help put that brass bead in perfect line with the center of the bore?

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.......
