Sights for the Marlin Camp Carbine?

It's a great shooter, but there doesn't seem to be any market for add-ons like a fiber-optic front sight.

Anyone know if you can modify or adapt another model FO sight to fit the Marlin M45 Carbine?

I'd bet that sights for a Marlin 336 or one of their other rifles would work.

As an aside, the Camp Carbines use the same scope mounts as the 336.

It has a front sight ramp with an industry standard 3/8" dovetail. Any rifle sight will fit, just get the right height. I can think of the Williams Fire Sight right offhand.

I have a trijicon reflex II on mine. Got an aftermarket mount from Weigand.
