Problem with new rifle

[BigAl52]

I wonder when a rifle goes out with something like that done and it goes back if there is any ears that get bent over it. That was just pure poor workmanship and neglect

Glad to hear they fixed it . Looking forward to a range report.

Put my Skinner Express sight on the rifle and went out to the range. Started to rain as soon as I set up my target so I did not stay long. Shoots about 8 inches high at 50 yards so I have to figure out how much taller a front sight I need. Also ordered a smaller aperture for the Skinner. But shoots and cycles well. I like the carbine and the caliber. I will figure this out.

Check out www.marblearms.com, they have a nice chart at the bottom of the sights pages that will give you a quick reference to figure the height of a new sight, (Henry sights look like a copy of Marbles sights). By the chart it looks like you will need to add about .050"+ to your front sight.
Have fun

Thank you. That was about what I was thinking after finding the formula on the Skinner site but it is always good to have someone else back up my guesstimate. I put the Henry sight back on to go shoot today and discovered the sliding adjustable piece was missing. I asked for another and I am sure I can get one from Henry. I am also checking for a front blade sight to use with the Skinner. I appreciate your input.
