I use a tang sight on my .45-70 Sharps replica. That in combination with the globe front sight make for very precise sighting.
A good tang sight will pivot fore and aft on its base for ease in storage and transportation. A side benefit is that on recoil, if it should jump back into your face (as i experience once in a while) it will lay down rather than gouge your head. After a few bumps, you learn better head placement.
