Uberti 1873 Tang Sight Rear Black

The Marble Arms tang sight for Uberti 1873 lever-action rifles brings authentic period-correct aiming to your rifle while delivering real functional advantages in the field or on the competition line. Whether you're hunting with a classic rifle or running Cowboy Action Shooting matches, this rear peep sight replaces the factory notch with a precision-adjustable aperture that sharpens your sight picture and speeds up target acquisition when it matters.

Positioned on the rifle's tang—the steel extension running back from the receiver—this sight takes advantage of a longer sight radius than a conventional rear peep mounted directly on the receiver. That extra distance between front and rear aiming points translates directly to tighter groups and faster, more confident shooting. The aperture sits closer to your eye than standard sights, giving you the crisp, focused sight picture serious shooters demand.

Built from all steel with a classic blued finish, the tang sight features micrometer adjustments for both windage and elevation, so you can dial in your rifle for different ammunition or distances without guess work. When not in use or during storage, the sight folds rearward out of the way. Installation requires a mounting screw set (sold separately), allowing you to match the exact fasteners your rifle's tang was designed for.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this tang sight fit my Uberti 1873?

Yes, this Marble Arms tang sight is designed specifically for Uberti 1873 lever-action rifles. You will need to purchase the correct mounting screw set separately, which is matched to your specific rifle model. Marble Arms provides a fitting chart to help you identify the right fastener set.

What's the advantage of a tang sight over the factory rear sight?

A tang-mounted rear peep sight extends the distance between your front and rear aiming points, which increases sight radius and improves accuracy at distance. The peep aperture also gives you a more refined sight picture than a notch sight, and positioning the aperture closer to your eye makes target acquisition faster and sight alignment more intuitive.

Do I get the mounting screws with the sight?

No, the mounting screw set is sold separately. This allows you to match the exact fasteners your rifle requires. Marble Arms offers a fitting chart to help you select the correct screw set for your model.

Can I use this sight for Cowboy Action Shooting and hunting?

Yes. The tang sight's authentic profile and adjustable aiming system make it equally at home in Cowboy Action Shooting competition and in the field hunting with a lever-action rifle. The micrometer adjustments let you dial in for different ranges and loads.
