I am looking at the Williams FP sight for that gun, and then putting a scout scope on it for when I want a scope. Then I can have it either way depending on what I feel like doing that day.

So far all of the mounts I have found have been black. I would like to find a stainless one, but if not then it wouldn't matter what color the scope is. I like what Jeff did with his Leupy at gunblast and had a turret made for it.

Helo, I scoped my Ruger #1 and have regretted it ever since. I am probably going with "iron sights" but with F/O front sight. I had it (the F/O) mounted for a while but took it off before my last hog hunt because I expected to perhaps shoot out to 400yds. (never saw but one hog, at about 80yds). There are a lot of lever actions that look pretty good with a scope, but I think it would detract from the rifle you posted. It looks great without a scope on it. Nice. |

You might try these guys, if you are intent on scoping it... I have seen a couple of rifles with their mounts and rings. They look nice. http://www.kelbly.com/rings.html |

The rings look nice, but I don't see any mounts. I would like to find a stainless mount if I am going to get a grey scope. |

i was debating on how the gun would look if I had black open sights and scout scope mount with silver rings and scope. Do you think that would look bad?

I guess that is what I will go for. Now, should I go with the Williams FP sights or XS sight systems. I am also looking at the XS scout scope mount made specifically for the Marlin 1895

The gun metal grey will be more elegant and richer looking than the brighter silver.

I think I might have to do the gun metal grey Leupy (will be my first Leupy). I know I can get that and the XS scout scope mount through SWFA. I just don't know if I would like the XS sight system better or the William FP with the fiber optics.

The XS is a ghost ring type that has a large I.D. and is very fast.
The FP has a smaller aperture and is better for longer and more accurate shots. The FP also has very nice adjustments and the insert can be removed to have a larger apertured ghost ring. The FP is my favorite for this type of sight. |
