Cost to gunsmith iron sights on modern hunting rifle?
1Anyone here have a gunsmith retrofit iron sights on their hunting rifle? How much did it cost? Any issues?

We had a rear peep installed on a 10-22 a couple years ago & it ran $75.
Got a Mauser waiting to have a Williams peep sight installed too; the old tired eyeballs need an aperture sight in order to stay effective, scopes are not an issue as you get older but non-aperture iron sights can be problematic.
We are still kicking around a rear tang sight for a Winchester model 1890 takedown .22 short gallery gun, it could prove to be interesting.
