Is your Sears Model 54, already drilled and tapped for peep sights?
If you choose to use a peep sight (Lyman???) for deer hunting. Unscrew the tiny peep aperture, so you'll have a ghost ring sight; which will give you a much better field of view for hunting large game.
A new pair of glasses (not reading glasses) for me, helped me immensely for seeing the front iron sight, without too much blur.
