I've been reading about some of the problems/bitches/moans and groans, etc. about Marlin blade front sights, and thought I'd pipe up and tell what I did with the front sight on my Marlin 1894cs.
I never did like the bead on the blade front sight, so I took my trusty dremel with a sanding disc and sanded the sides and top of the blade until it was flat on all sides and took the brass bead off, took it over to the local gunsmith and had them stuff some black epoxy putty in the hole and touch up the blueing. Now I got a black flat-topped front sight with no glare. Best thing I ever did for my favorite toy!
