It requires a drill press, vice some drills, taps etc. I have built and mounted lots of these type of bubba sights to use on my own guns. NOTICE TO PEOPLE LOOKING FOR A SLIDELINE: I have seen lots of people looking for ways to mount scopes on Savages, adjustable sights on handguns, scout scopes on anything etc. Don't get carried away with the glue as it expands as it dries. Work some Gorilla or other polyurethane glue up in those spaces. After you have the screws tight there will be spaces between the mount and barrel. The extra screws can be used to allow you to rotate the scope to bore sight. Slide the whole mess on the barrel and replace the extractor assembly. Start a few screws in the extra holes you drilled. Very likely you will have to grind a little off the mount screws so they won't touch the barrel. Drill and tap a few extra holes in the base. Drill and tap this sleeve for what ever type mounts you want to use. Between spreading the split and grinding down the insides of the split, make a sleeve that will slide over the barrel after you have removep the ejector assembly. Neck, just take a piece of steel pipe and slit it down one side with a hack saw, dremel what ever. I am on sort of a vacation and may be able to post pictures when I get back. I screw a nut down on the screw to form sort of a base and lock the screw. This screw can be cut down to make a usable front sight. Slip the split pipe over the end of the barrel and clamp with the screw. I filed the front sight completely off, cut and split another short piece of pipe and drill and tap it for either a 6,8 or 10x32 nylon or brass screw from the hard ware store. When you try this sight you will most likely find it shoots way too high because the front sight is too low. The new rear sight can be clamped to the barrel with the two extra 6x48 screws in the holes you drilled and tapped into the base. Slide the split piece of pipe over the back end of the 22 barrel and reinstall the extractor.Ĭompletely remove the original rear sight. Now the parts that you have ordered may have come in. D&T another couple of 6x48 holes some where in the split pipe. Williams makes some great ones even peeps. I dont recall what I paid for mine, but it wasnt a great deal-pretty sure 40 bucks or less. While waiting on new parts to come in drill and tap two holes in the split pipe to hold a rear sight in. In the days when I still used EBay, the Redfield Savage 24 sights showed up with reasonable frequency. Remove this screw and spend 3 days looking for the various parts that went flying. The 22 extractor is held in by a tiny screw and is spring loaded. I slit this pipe and beat a piece of tapered steel into it until it would slide over the barrel. I think it was 3/8 but it may have been 1/4.
