Citadel Levtec 357/38 special.

Post by Dpowers »

My wife's and mine new hunting rifle.
Citadel 357/38 special. Threaded. Nice trigger/no flop unlike in my Glenfield 30A. Rear peep sight/bead front. Anyone know if skinner or RPP has sights a rear sight/aperture that I can swap out? I have read that it is based on a Rossi R92....just the fancier and better production.

Would anyone know how to take it apart and what to smooth out ?

Dunno the answer but welcome and I'm sure you guys will enjoy that levergun...!

Actually.....

Look at the Marbles Bullseye sight.

Search the forum for that phrase and 'AJMD439' and you will find lots of posts where I sing it's praises.

The Marbles 'Bullseye' rear sight is incredibly fast to acquire in 'ghost rimg' mode yet allows precision if you take an extra second or two to use the inner aperture.

In my 'aperture sights' post - https://levergunscommunity.org/viewtopic.php?t=31831 - I have a few pictures. It's pretty hard to take a good picture showing what a sight view actually looks like because of depth of field issues but I think the pictures give you a general idea of the advantages of that sight over any other barrel mounted sight.

Especially notice how the field of view is much greater because of the design versus other types of open sites, and even other aperture sites like the Williams FP.

That gun is made by Rossi for LAGACY SPORTS INT.
You might consider removing the aperture and just use the base as a ghost ring. I say that because t's a bit too far from your eye to be a fast acquiring peep sight. But, should do well for a fast ghost ring.

I'm sure that sight is a Williams ACE IN THE HOLE
