I got a model 70 super express in 75 and do not like the fold down adjustable rear sight. How much work would be involved in replacing it with an NECG rear sight? I am guessing it would not just replace the original sight and would have to be gunsmith installed.

Thanks,

Gene,

Give them a call. I had talked with their 'sight guy' and I can not remember his name for sure.

He sent me a fixed express sight which mounted in place of the flip-up factory sight. It is solid and there was not problem just replacing the other leaf.

Good luck,

Sam

Have used NECG sights on few rifles and if you get into the replacement of the front sight w/ band, etc. it gets a bit pricey, over $200 if memory serves me correctly. Rear should not be a problem if the attaching screws/holes line up. They at NECG are capable and would be helpful if possible. They make a good product.

Thanks for the help guys, will give them a call.

I have the same question, so please let us know how you end up.

I haven't been to the Cranfills Gap area in quite a few years!
