Site choices for a Win extra light
I own a Win extra light it currently has a peep site on it. I prefer open sites, what are my choices for a good rear? Do they make a "firesite" for these rifles?
Most fiber-optic sights, rears particularly, are made to fit the standard 3/8" rifle dovetail - just like on the rear of your EL's barrel.
Williams makes the FireSight, and there's Tru-Glo, and Hi-Viz too.
Williams charges $20 for the rear sight alone - so that part's EZ.

The trouble is, that AFAIK, nobody makes a fiber-optic front sight that is a pinned-in blade-type, to fit the little front sight ramp your EL should have, if it's like mine were.
Every manufacturer's fiber-optic front fits a standard transverse-type dovetail, just like the front sights on most Model 94's, etc.
