Hello I was wondering if anybody new where i could find a tang sight for a remington model 12 pump .22. I looked but could not find one.

I did more research the sight that im looking for is a lyman R-12

All I can find are the #2 tang sights and they are for other rifles.

I believe it is out of production and you will have to find one used. Gunbroker has had them and they are pricey, asking all the way up to and over 200$. Since I have just learned what these are worth, I will start shopping for another nice model 12 Rems with a tang sight, since it probably would be a steal.

What have you got into that rifle? BTW that model is my first gun, handed down from GPop. I still have it.

I know of a gentleman who used to buy ok Rem. Mdl 12's with tang sights on them. He would take of the sights and sell just the guns for what he paid . They used to be available in the $100 - $150 range , haven't priced them lately.

I have nothing into the gun, I found it in my father in laws basement. Maybe I will buy one that already has a tang sight. thanks
