Skinner barrel mount peep sight

Looking at one for my H001. Anybody have that setup, and if so can you stay with the factory front sight?

I installed a Hi-Viz front sight ( https://amazon.com/gp/product/B008CXLWKO/ ) on my H001 in 2014 and last year I installed Skinner's barrel mount Peep. Perfectly matched. I expect you won't have any issues either, since the Hi-Viz sight paired well with the original Henry buck horn, too.

Thanks. Sounds like I need to give it a try.

Good luck. The H001 Classics are easy to work on.

Ordered one today, now the wait for arrival. I’ll give an update when I get it installed and tested.

Put the same setup on my H001 this summer. It shot a bit high about 3" at 25 yards with the peep screwed all the way down so I called Skinner to order taller front sight. He said to try filing of a bit of the threads before putting a different front sight on it. Filed about .020 off it and dialed it right in.

Well, I am impressed. Put the sight on, and it shot to point of aim at 25 yards with no adjustment needed. I could consistently hit basketball size targets offhand at about 100 yards. This is money well spent.
