Rossi 92 peep sight safety replacement

The safety on the bolt is not centered on the bolt. How does the Steves Gunz sight account for being off center?

Sent Steve a message to ask for you and linked to this post.

Since I kind of like the safety for young uns but with these old eyes figure a peep is eventually the way to go.

"The majority of the Rossi bolts are drilled in the center. I have only heard of one other besides this one that wasn't."

My take is that is not the usual. I personally, just me, would get a Lyman 66 or Williams FP and get it drilled and tapped on the SIDE for the sight. Some folks who never move their sights like the XS or even the WGRS (the last mounted on the bolt).

Strange - I'll check again but I'm almost positive

He did say he had seen one other...

My mistake - it is centered when you look closely

The little tabs that flip around make it look offsides but the post is centered.

Hoorah!
