Guide_Set_E 







         


  
       In response to YOUR needs, Marlin brought out the incredible 
       GUIDE GUN Series of rifles.  These handy and quality rifles 
       have been a tremendous success with shooters all over the 
       world.  We offer the Guide Gun Owner a special set of 
       SKINNER SIGHTS that includes a "RAMPED FRONT" that is 
      .070" wide.  This special front sight reduces snagging in the
       scabbard and brush, is wide enough to see quickly yet narrow 
       enough to not obscure the target.  Our Guide Front Sight is nicely
       serrated on the back to reduce glare.

(Shown here in Skinner "GOLD")

AS RUGGED AS THE MEN AND AS BEAUTIFUL AS THE WOMEN WHO LIVE THERE.....

 The Skinner "ALASKAN" offers 1/2" more sight radius, bringing the aperture/peep
 even closer to your eye for a more clear field of view.

This sight covers the full length of the 1895 or 336 (or any of the large frame Marlins)
 receiver flat, blending the lines even further than the beautiful EXPRESS Sight.

                             ADJUSTING THE SKINNER SIGHT

Windage adjustment is accomplished by sliding the dovetail piece left or right in its slot.  
The fit is tight, so you may need a BRASS PUNCH to move it.  Once adjusted, it is locked 
in place with the set screw on top of the sight in front of the peep.  When adjusting, move
 the rear sight in the direction you want to bullet impact to move.

Elevation adjustment is accomplished by turning the peep on its threaded shaft to raise 
or lower the aperture.  One half turn will move the point of impact about 2 inches at 
100 yards, depending on your sight radius.  The aperture can be threaded into the peep 
stem from either side.
  Once adjusted, the peep stem is locked in place using the set screw
 on the side of the dovetail piece.

To install the 1895 or 336 sight it is necessary to remove the dovetail piece to tighten
 the mounting screw under the dovetail.
 

Caution is required to avoid injury when the dovetail piece is removed.
 
The corners of the dovetail slot are sharp. Use a BRASS PUNCH wooden dowel,
 or plastic punch to remove the dovetail.

This sight measures .480" from the top of the receiver to the center of the aperture.
