My long range one didn't but maybe that's an option.
Baldwin sights turn opposite of Hoke sights.

You can order sights from Steve that turn the same direction as MVAs etc

I might have to order a whole new top with the 44 min And opposite turning screws then. Since I have his sight on my Wesson #1.

I could use an MVA base for an 1885 High Wall that would fit a Soule sight. I made my decision about the sight and ended up with more than one rifle to try it on. The one that was offered earlier was sold while I was trying to find a suitable rifle (found 2) and decide on a sight. Yes, I can order a new base from MVA if no one has a spare lying around for less than full price. Or I can just move the sight back and forth. Like most BPCR projects, this one seems to be taking on a life of its own.

Had all of our Baldwin tang sights converted to right is right, left is left. Tough sight, very functional. Yes you can order them new that way.
Baldwin trade name is, Mechanical Accuracy.

Have a relatively new, hardly used, Hoke Long Range Tang Sight with Sharps base I might consider parting with.

Also have a really nice Frank Zikka Long Range Tang Sight with base, not sure what base fits, might part with.

I do get alerts from Shiloh Site if someone sends me a Private Message.

Now I need a windage front sight with a 7/8" dovetail and inserts. Does anyone have one of those you want to sell?
