Bought a Charles Daly Little Sharps in 38-55.  The first thing I had to do is drill out the peep to use with old eyes.  The rear sight provided does not allow for windage adjustment and sucks.  I need a base to mount a scope on.  It will have to be one piece and about 7" long.  Anybody have an answer to my delima?   Thanks for all responses.

Let me ask if the front sight is riding within a dovetail so windage correction could be done by drifting it with a punch and an acrilic hammer?
Check with the guys that made the rifle about scope base options this gun falls outside the norm:
