New Skinner Sight
They really are quite nice sights - somewhat visually reminiscent of the original Hepburn receiver sight but with improvements like windage adjustments.
That is a handy and useful setup for just about any need.
Since I don't shoot open barrel sights well I have always gravitated to receiver & tang sights. The Lyman 48s, Redfield 101 & 102, Wittek-Vaver receiver sights and Lyman 1a or MVA tangs, those I can use.
Only have a couple of Andy's Skinner sights, but they work - and are in current production. With the exception of the MVA line, the others mentioned are all out of print.
