Any help appreciated, is the front sight the same on a Ted Williams model 100 as on a regular Win 94?
The gun has a scope that I want to get rid of, but no front sight.

I checked Numrich, nothing for a Ted Williams, plenty of options for the Win 94. Any help also on the height, .260, .290 ?

Thanks!

  Front sights....I have a Sears model 54, a Sears Ted Williams model 100, and a newer 94 Ranger model. All are without hoods, and mounted in a barrel dovetail. I believe all are original. Rough measurements (eyeball) with a micrometer, without removing the sight from the dovetail (top of sight to bottom of dovetail):
  1. Ranger...height .580 in.
  2. Sears TW 100 ...height .580 in.
  3. Sears 54 ...height .475 in.
  All my other Win. 30-30s have the front sight mounted on a ramp with a dovetail and hood. Without removal, they all appear to be significantly shorter.
  As a senior citizen, all my 30-30s have scopes mounted, and intact front and rear sights.
  Hope this helps.....BT

  The front sight on my 20" barreled Sears 54 (273.2120) is .485" above the barrel (no ramp) and the dovetail appears to be another .095" for a total height of .490". the barrel dia. is .610" at this point. For 100 yds (+2") with 170 gr. loads, the bottom of the notch on the rear sight is .405" above the barrel which is .860" dia. under the blade.
