Holiday Hayes SASS#39,336 Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 Is this sight SASS legal? It has a small non-click windage adjustment screw under the folding blade. I didn't realize it was the "W" model until I recieved it. The dovetail is too close to mount a standard Marbles sight properly. Thanks for any info HH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Major E A Sterner #12916 Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 Yes the site is legal,from the SASS handbook...

RIFLE • Tang mounted rear sights may utilize changeable “peep” apertures and eyecups. • No bolt or receiver mounted sight is permitted. • Dovetails may be milled in the barrel for sight replacement. • Beech style front sights and sight hoods are allowed. • Front sights may include a bead or insert of steel, iron, ivory, faux ivory, brass, gold, pewter, copper, or silver.

Holiday Hayes SASS#39,336 Posted September 8, 2013 Author Share Posted September 8, 2013 Thanks for the reply. I read the hand book but wasn't sure if the windage adjustment was legal. Thanks again. HH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
