Yes, it will look very sharp on the rifle!

Curious what you will do, Whaler. The Skinner web site pics of the dovetail blanks look like they are wider than the dovetail slot. Will you be filing the blank to even it up at all? My bronze Skinner peep for my Big Boy is barrel-mounted, so I didn't need to get the blank.

Looking forward to the pics of the "Express" mounted on your Henry!

I'd like to add one to my own rifle, Whaler. I'm looking forward to your pics, too.

I predict not only will you like how it looks on the rifle, you will like how the rifle shoots with them.

Did you get a new front sight as well? You'll probably need to go a couple of .1" higher in front.

Didn't order a new front sight I want to shoot the factory front first then order one if needed.
