RIFLE DECORATIVE SLOT BLANK

RIFLE DECORATIVE SLOT BLANK Reviews & Ratings

Not just another slot-filler, but an attractive, all steel blank that hides the unsightly appearance of an empty sight dovetail on your favorite sporter rifle. Stylish, diamond shape with decorative, milled edges blends naturally into the barrel contour for a truly finished look. Polished and blued with enough room for custom engraving, if so desired. Fits standard, .375' x 60° dovetails without fitting. SPECS: Steel, polished blue finish. 1' (2.5cm) long x 9/16'
(1.4cm) wide. Fits .375' x 60° dovetail.

Decorative sight blank
After first getting a wrong order from Brownells and returning it at my expense, then re-ordering this item, I figure this little part cost me around $55. Then it is too small and stands way too proud above the barrel of my new Henry Big Boy. And will take too much shimming and fitting to make it worthwhile. Absolutely NOT, I do not recommend !
