Brownells has both a nice tang sight and globe front sight for the pedersoli

Try buffalo arms they also have good selection and try jeff outfitters they had some good prices.

Axtell, in Sheridan MT www.riflesmith.com (http://www.riflesmith.com) makes tang and globe sights that are exactly the same as on original Sharps rifles. They will fit the Pedersoli.

I recommend the Soule type rear sight and the spirit level front sight made by Steve Baldwin in OKC. I have them on a C. Sharps Highwall and on a Pedersoli Sharps. Just tell Steve what gun you are using and he'll send you the correct base with your site.

All sugguestions above are excellent,There is a gentleman over at the Auction arms site that has Quaility globe and vernier sites at great prices,If you want excellent sites at quite reasonable price,$50 for globe and $125 for rear tang. I have them on two of my sharps. you cannot go wrong.Hope this helps Wayne Front globe is expressly for period Sharps.

MVA , don't like my Pedersoli soule sight,much harder to read than my MVA & needs to go back to Italy for replacement , windage resets itself from recoil, uppon return it will probably go on my .22 low wall , lost trust in it not holding settings under recoil
have MVA base on my 74 Pedersoli & 74 C. Sharps, switch sight from gun to gun

Got my new sights for my Pedersoli rifle from Kerrmit Hoke Not sure of spelling...I really like them..His ad is in Single shot magazine and I'm sure other places as well...
