Henry. 357/38

Hi
I need recommendations for a ladder sight for my Henry 357/38. Any? Is difficult to install it?

Thanks

Eric

The only source I know of, for a ladder sight is "Skinner Sights" (skinnersights.com). The installation should be easy, but it could be more complicated if you also need a higher front sight. I would suggest going to the skinner website for installation instructions and front sight compatibility.

I'm assuming that you mean an actual ladder sight and not folding tang peep sights. If you're thinking about tang sights instead, then you're probably limited to Lyman or Marbles.

Skinner and Ranger Point Precision also make receiver sights for the henry big boy. I think the Skinner sight is the better sight, but I installed the Ranger Point receiver sight on my henry big boy .357, because it was compatible with the height of the existing front sight.

I like the Skinner Ladder Sight. I have something like that on a 22.
