Midwest Industries Marlin 1894 .357 Extended Sight System Black

The Midwest Industries Marlin 1894 .357 Extended Sight System in Black is a precision rear sight assembly purpose-built for lever-action rifles and designed specifically for the Marlin 1894 platform. This extended sight system delivers fast target acquisition through a heavy-duty ghost ring aperture paired with a steel front sight post, addressing the typical sight radius limitations of traditional Marlin 1894 variants. The modular design accommodates rifles equipped with handguard caps, making installation straightforward on compatible receivers.

Adjustment capability is extensive—the rear aperture features wide windage and elevation range to compensate for zero variation across different ammunition loads, critical when running multiple .357 Magnum and .38 Special loads through the same rifle. The extended mounting position stretches the sight radius significantly beyond factory iron sights, improving angular resolution and shot-to-shot consistency at extended ranges. Steel construction ensures durability under field conditions, while the included Midwest Industries sight adjustment tool simplifies field zeroing without requiring improvised tools. A forward-mounted sling swivel accommodates conventional hunting slings, preserving traditional carry methods.

This sight system is built for lever-action hunters and sport shooters who demand reliable iron sights on their Marlin 1894 rifles. Whether engaging targets at 50 yards or establishing a precision zero for .357 Magnum hunting, the extended sight radius and adjustability eliminate the accuracy constraints of standard aperture placements. The ghost ring design reduces sight picture noise in variable lighting, enhancing target contrast during lowlight conditions common in hunting scenarios.

Lever-action rifles remain popular in regions where traditional hunting methods are preferred, and the Marlin 1894 in .357 Magnum is prized for close-range hunting and sport shooting. An upgraded sight system directly addresses accuracy at practical hunting distances while maintaining the classic aesthetic and ergonomics of a traditional lever-action platform.
