I have a very accurate and fun to shoot Ruger Hawkeye Compact in .223. The rifle does not have iron sights and I wish it did. I have found a New England Custom sight that fits in one of the milled scope mount slots and works well on another rifle with a front sight.
I would like to mount a front sight on my rifle, probably a barrel band type sight. How difficult is this to do? Is it even reasonable? I don't want a cheap job but I don't want to spend a fortune on it either. I would appreciate any suggestions including a recommendation on a gunsmith. I don't think this is a DIY project, but I would like suggestions. Thanks
