Description
DID YOU REMOVE YOUR REAR BARREL SIGHT?: This fills in the hole and has the same curvature as your barrel to match cleanly.
LOOSE FIT: This dovetail filler is a perfect match to your barrel curve with delicate edges. As such, you hand slide it into place AND use red loktite for 24 hour cured to hold it in place (will stay for years!).
.875″ 3/8 DOVETAIL FILLER: MARLIN, HENRY, ROSSI, CITADEL, WINCHESTER, MOSSBERG
Ranger Point profiled dovetail fillers are specially machined to “flush mount” on sporter and big bore barrels. They match the exact contour of your barrel’s diameter.
All Henry / Marlin / Rossi 92 & Citadel Levtac 92 / Winchester 94 centerfire rifles (not 22’s)
These already profiled dovetail blanks are hand fit in minutes and save you the 1-2 hours of filing necessary to fit
– Machined out of round bar steel (salt bath black nitride coated) or stainless steel
– Flush mounts to match the round barrel diameter unlike other “unsightly bulge” of other blanks
– Loose fit so as to match the profile” of the barrel (no tapping into place, use red loctite to hold it in place)
FITTING INSTRUCTIONS
Test fit the dovetail filler in the barrel cut. In most cases, it will slide in easily, or with gentle tapping. Do not attempt to drift in the blank with a punch, as this will damage the thin side edges. If the filler does not fit, use a file or sandpaper to remove material from the fore/aft sharp edges (not bevels). If removing a few thousands of an inch doesn’t get a fit, the bottom of the filler may need to be lapped on fine sandpaper to loosen the overall fit. Cold blue may be used for touching up bare metal. Once a slip fit is achieved, degrease the filler and the dovetail cut, then apply Red Loctite (or similar) generously to help fill voids and prevent rust. Wipe away excess and let set. Apply gun oil after adhesive sets. When the factory rear sight is removed it leaves an unsightly dovetail cut in the barrel. Our profiled blanks fill this dovetail to closely match the diameter of the barrel, rather than having an equally unsightly raised hunk of metal.
