I put a Williams receiver sight designed for a grooved receiver on my 9422 Win lever .22 and a Lyman 17A globe front sight. While I was at it, I removed the stock sight and put in a nice press fit filler block.
Now everyone who sees it covets it.
Everyone who SHOOTS it wants to buy it or steal it.

I suppose you could also use a Marlin 39 as they both have a nice classic look.

The neat part is that when you put your teensy target in that globe front aperture........it is HIT.

I have been reading about the amazing grouping that 9422 barrels seem to do and it must be true. There is nothing small enough to miss.

I also found out that doing a trigger job on it is dead simple and makes a world of difference just putting the right angle on the trigger with a fine stone.

Kind of a "mini-Quigley."

Nice cool factor. What a hoot twood be to show up at a small bore match and place well with that. Saw a kid with a junker BSA Martini Brit trainer gun beat a lot of Walthers, Ahchoos, 52s etc one day. He didn't win but tween the gun, his scores and some showmanship.......he was the hit of the match.
