I have a Hawken 54 cal Pedersoli I am interested in putting the Pedersoli ghost ring sight on it. I see it comes with two wood screws. Has anyone mounted one of these.It doesent show how it is mounted in the info Thanks.
 
It was originally intended for their .72 cal.Gibbs rifle. I ordered mine from Flintlocks etc. and it came with machine screws that were metric if I recall. You'll need to drill and tap the tang on your rifle. I think I used 6-32 screws on my flint Hawken. It's a custom rifle so I didn't want holes in the tang so I made a removable base that uses longer tang bolts to fasten it. I mounted the sight to the base.
 
No issue. I have mounted that sight on at least 10 rifles now.
I use the rear tang screw and if needed, drill and tap a new whole in the tang.
Some of the TC rifle and some of the Pedersoli's come with a hole already there, but of not, do not panic, it's an easy 5 minute job to drill and tap a 6/32 or 8/32 hole.
BTW - TOTW has the best prices on the Pedersoli Ghost sights.

Are the rear posts for sale by themselves? I can't seem to find them.
