The rear notch in the tang is of course centered in the tang and about 1/16" deep. I chose to stay with the period correct style of sights, as I attempted to reproduce a British Style fowler. I copied am unsigned gun, that is in a book. There was not rear sight on them except for the notch I provided. Here is the tang before I filed in the groove. I debated about doing it, before shooting it, but I couldn't or wouldn't be able to stand having a groove off of center and would bend the barrel anyhow. The groove follows the slot in the screw and travels forward in the tang, to the back of the barrel, but not into the barrel. As an original I was referring to was done. I just want to make darn sure, that as it is now, the gun shoots low. So, it appears I want to bend the barrel up. [img:center]http://
