Upgraded H001 rear sight
Upgraded H001 rear sight
I had an extra Marbles semi buckhorn like comes standard on the GB's, so I stuck it on my H001.
Man what a difference!
I love this sight on my GB and it is far better than the factory H001 sight!

I think the stock rear sight on the H001 is the worst in the industry. The front is the second worst.
Nice job in replacing it. I must do the same.

Looks like he's using the same "notched ramp" that the original used....but it's adjustable.Ernie wrote:Is the height correct or adjustable? Looks like a great sight.

The sight with the screw has two vertical adjustments. The notched ramp is like a coarse adjustment. The screw allows the insert to be moved up/dn for a 'fine' adjust that falls between notches in the ramp.

Ditto on the rear - and I think I have said similar previously.I think the stock rear sight on the H001 is the worst in the industry. The front is the second worst.
The front however is not too bad - and the one off my Henry was on my '66 commemorative Winchester for a while - and paired pretty well with the Williams receiver rear - until I bought the globe from Esquared and swapped it out.

Re: Upgraded H001 rear sight
That rear sight, with the adjustable insert, comes on the Frontiers as well. I raised the insert about as far as it can go, first, because I'm not really much of a fan of buckhorn type sights. I like the top as flat as possible, if I leave it on. A Skinner peep or scope is more likely to be in its future, though.

Re: Upgraded H001 rear sight
I have a H001ML that I shorten the barrel by 3" so the OEM sight and the Skinner barrel and receiver mount peeps worked all about the same and satisfactory I knew something better had to be available. I came across the Marbles Bullseye Peep that is a barrel mount and I am impressed. This sight is fantastic as far as I am concerned. Fast,easy on old eyes, and under $30.00. I shoot my mare's leg with a cheek weld which makes a short sight radius open sights a problem to begin with. I have no eye fatigue with the Bullseye sight.
