I wish I could hit what I aim at with factory iron or fiber optic sights. I’m pretty sure my glasses prescription is same they used to build the Hubble telescope. It’s a shame to clutter up the classic lines of a nice lever action with a scope or red dot, but that’s the only way I’m going to keep my shots forward of the firing line.
Long sigh. Ya same here. Mine are scoped except for the BBCCH 45 colt.

Ditto that Mags. All my rifles are scoped except my 39A.

Are the pistol grip stocks a bolt on for the rifles with straight stocks? Only need the "bent-loop lever" and the wood? Is there more to this that I'm missing? It would seem like the lower receiver tang would have to be slightly curved?

PG stock and lever bolt right up but you'll have a gap in the grip between the trigger plate and lever. One day I may contact Henry to see if they they sell a PG trigger plate. In the mean time, I made a small plug to fill in the gap.
