shrewd asked:

did you need to drill or have a gunsmith work on your rifle to add that Lyman, Sheffield?

No, the Marlin and Winchester lever guns came drilled and tapped for receiver sights with filler screws in the holes. Not sure if they still do.

I have a Williams 5D on my Winchester 1894 .30-30 and a Williams Fool Proof on my Marlin 39A.
