That's a lively sporter that you picked up. Easy to carry and points like a stick. What's not to like!
Have you considered a rear aperture sight?
I have, but digging around for one that's halfway period (it's a 1918 manufacture so I'd prefer something pre-1939) is a bear unless it's one of the large Parker Hale jobs that look rather unsightly or a boxy Willams or aluminum Lyman. Ideally a Rigby cocking-piece setup would be added, but those are on the shelf with hens teeth.
That, and without the rifle on hand I'm having a bit of trouble finding the barrel diameter to order the NECG rear sight that Daryl put me on the scent of.
