Below are some pics of my ghost-ring peep-sight Mr. Bailey Bradshaw built and installed on my Merkel .500 NE. I also had him put on a red fiber optic front bead.        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ J.

Lane, I think it looks great, and I love the fibre optic front sight as well. My eyes like the fibre optics more and more everyday, even though I try to keep convincing myself otherwise. Sometimes change is good, and fibre optics on doubles can be a good change. I hope you finally have your Merkel dialed in where you wanted it. I know bullet selection can often be a difficult decison, but accuracy is the name of the game. Best of luck with it.

Very nicely done indeed - which of course is to be expected ! The only comment I would make it the "shine" on the curved front of the base (Pic 3 from top) would annoy the F%&k out of me and draw my eye to it. It was the first thing I noticed when trying to see the fibre optic sight. . | |||

Your eyes would not even notice it in real life. I hardly even see the ring. That is how Bailey says a a "true ghost-ring" should be...a ghost. I took those pics with my IPhone. I will take some with a real camera soon and post. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ J. Lane Easter, DVM A born Texan has instilled in his system a mind-set of no retreat or no surrender.

That is the exact setup I have been wanting. That base with the flip up sight is outstanding. Is this a one time custom that he made for you or does he sell those as a stock item?

Bailey milled off the fixed leaf and left the folding leaf. So...it has a folding rear leaf express sight or the folding ghost-ring aperture sight. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ J.

That looks great! ****************************************************************** R.
