I'm picking up my 1873 lever action from the dealer today and realized I hadn't looked into tang sights yet! Looks like a Lyman is $90 and a Marbles is $120. I know both are good quality, is the adjustable windage on the Marbles worth the extra $30? I've shimmed them in the past with no issues. My plan is to sight it in for one load and never mess with it again. I'm also wondering if the knob on the Marbles wouldn't end up as a detriment as far as getting in the way and snagged on stuff.

Thanks for any opinions and experiences.

I like the Lyman on handy-guns: i.e.....the Marble lived on a semi-target rifle. Have both, and am disposing of same -- One each...LNIB -- Having a change of armory requirements, here. Both are for Marlin. Marble's also has a globe fron target sight with it. The Lyman has a pure target front sight included, FWIW. Has listed earlier with no takers....sooo....Marbles 100$, postage included. Lyman Lyman -- 55.00, postage incl.

I like the windage adjustment a lot. No muss, no fuss with shims and trying to get the right thickness, just crank the rear sight over to whatever you need. In my experience, the Marbles sight is also better finished than the Lyman.

Just my two cents......
