Default Bowen rear sight on 686SSR
I want to get a rear sight that has a deeper rear notch. From my research the Bowen rough country has this. Will I need to drill/tap my 686 SSR Pro series for to install one or will it just swap out? Thanks

The Rough Country sight should install easily with no alterations to the gun. There are different blade heights available for the rear sight as well.

The Bowen Rough Country is a great sight. I put one on my Performance Center 627 UDR and am very happy with it.
