Let’s see some photos of what’s about?
Show me yours first.
Yeah I am interested to see them too. Often thought about trying something similar but seem to only happen on levers and they don't really interest me.
I’ve got one, but it’s currently got a scope on it.

Just interested to see what people are doing.
I wouldn’t hunt without a suppressor anymore but finding a suppressor/open sight combo is difficult. Just makes a lot of sense for a bush rifle that shoots 60m max.
Open sights are simple, good in wet weather, cheap and not much to go wrong.

An offset suppressor muzzle forwards maybe?
Thanks @gimp. That's the kinda stuff I was thinking. Appears my search wording is shit
The daughters Marlin 357 sbl has Ghost Ring sights we managed to thread and add a dpt and keep front sight . Great little bush gun with 16 inch barrel , no kick , and able to run off the shelf 38 subs for quiet shooting ... And 8 in the tube ...Quote:

What more could you want for short range fast shots...?
Mates also got the same setup, but has needed to go 4 more baffles. Its now lovely and quiet.Quote:

Super keen on the Aimsport solution as I actually have a Triton 42 II as luck would have it! Thanks @gimp !
As to be expected, the UK distributor does not list it as an option to purchase...
Is he not looking for something like this?

If based on a No 4 and left in .303 you'd have closed iron sight advantage (for older eyes) and the choice between supersonics and subsonics. Almost any shot out No 4 will do fine at 50-60m.
Looks great, I have the same thing in 44 mag and was wondering if the front sight could be remounted to suit the suppressor. How do you find the accuracy now?
I’ve only had one rushed session since the work was done. Accuracy looks bloody good so far.Quote:
