Colt dragoon rear sight

[.44-40WCF]

Sorry, but I could not enter the introduction site. My toy box contained Grandfather Burnham's 1860 Army, a fine Spencer carbine, and an Allen & Wheelock .36 squirrel rifle. We had neither black powder nor instruction, so open Missouri firecrackers and shot BB's from these fine old guns. After I disassembled and made the locks work on all three. I now have an Uberti Walker which needs a rear sight on the breech. Dixie GW had them in their '91 catalogue and Armi San Marco sold them on Dragoons. Where can I buy one today? And where might one buy a barrel band for the Spencer Carbine?

Lodgewood is the first place I'd suggest.

For historical purposes the 3rd Model Dragoon leaf sight is not appropriate for use on the Walker. With that having been said, for more accurate casual shooting it would help quite a bit!

Thank you Jobe. Half an antique silver dime as a front sight won't be kosher either, but will aid accuracy. Where might I find a rear sight? KYPD. Healy

Private Southron Sr. Was looking for dragoon rear sights. Did he find a source?

Thank you Colonel Steele, but Lodgewood doesn't list them. Private Southron Sr. Was looking for the same.
