fireball168Source for Mark X Whitworth .375 replacement sights?
Just picked up a .375 Whitworth, either it never had the irons installed, or the previous owner removed them....the barrel is and tapped for both the front and rear.
Wondering if anybody knows who supplied these sights, or has an extra set laying around.

jeffeossofront sight can be a williams, though an necg banded, with a barrel band, is a better choice.
rear is available from

Mine came with a williams WGOS rear and williams ramp front.

I'd not agree with Jeffe's recommendation of a NECG banded sight. This rifle isn't of that caliber....If one was to totally restock with english walnut and custom work then the banded sight is great.
The whitworth is a great gun....ramped sights look just fine on it!

fireball168The hole spacing seems far enough apart compared to the NECG's that are on my other rifle...I'd probably have to fill some holes to go that route.
I found another thread, supposedly SARCO has the original sights....

jeffeossoVapo,
you might be right.. if it was mine, i'd stick the necg on, with a barrel band sling, while i had it "apart", though
