Tall John Posted September 30 Posted September 30 Inadvertently broke the rear sitght blade on my rifle this morning. can this be replaced or do I have to replace the entire rear sight? Quote
Dusty Sights, SASS # 2782 Posted September 30 Posted September 30 https://www.gunpartscorp.com/products/2050680c Numrich has the complete part. I'd try the super glue first. Reassemble it to the sight base then glue together. 1 Quote
Dantankerous Posted September 30 Posted September 30 (edited) Might be the perfect time to upgrade to a Skinner sight on the rear. If this is not a competition rifle. Otherwise, a tang mounted sight would be needed for a peep. However, if this is not a competition rifle a receiver mounted peep is quite the ticket! Skinner Edited September 30 by Dantankerous Quote
The Original Lumpy Gritz Posted September 30 Posted September 30 Dork! 🙃 Check the Brownells site for replacement..... 1 1 Quote

I just looked over their offerings for the Marlin and do not see anything tang mounted. I added a clarifier to my original post. Edited September 30 by Dantankerous Quote
Colorado Coffinmaker Posted September 30 Posted September 30 A large and hearty vote for Skinner. I also vote for the "Smith Sights" ladder sight. The Smith sight is superb. Quote
Edward R S Canby, SASS#59971 Posted September 30 Posted September 30 I lost mine and got a replacement from Midwest Gun Works. See https://www.midwestgunworks.com/marlin-model-1894/rear-sight-folding-leaves.html. I do not recommend super glue. It is brittle and may shatter from the shock of recoil. 2 Quote
