Need replacement sights

Post by bigskybound »

My Model 8 that has no rear barrel sight and a damaged front sight (Marbles #6). Can anyone suggest a source for locating replacements?

I'm sure there are folks on here who have an extra original if that is what you are looking for. Although Remington put on a number of different sights as requested, I understand they also included the original with the rifle.

I noticed eBay has at least one tang sight currently at auction: 350319038200

I have a Marbles tang sight to put on. I need a Remington Number 68 rear sight and a new front - either Marbles #6 or Rem. Number 69,
