Rob, I have a Skinner on my .45 Colt '94 AE.

Just a little fussy to adjust but rock-solid when done. Miss Melodie used it to great effect in 2015 to end the career of the "were-pig".

Tried to take a picture but my camera batteries died. It looks just like this one => http://www.skinnersights.com/winchester_26.html

I did end up with a taller front with an 'ivory' bead and also opted for the rear sight blank which is tapped to hold an extra aperture or to hold the one removed to allow for a 'ghost ring' type shot.

We've been quite pleased with this set-up.

        Ok, so cutting the face of the sight might not be a cost - Hobie, 2016-10-16, 21:53
