The Gforce LVR 357 saddlehorn has 2 pre-drilled holes under the rear sight. Does anyone know where to find screws that will work? Base mounts for lever actions like Marlin or Winchester use a smaller hole. I could drill the hole in the base a little bigger if I can just find the bigger screws, which I assume are metric... I contacted Gforce, they couldn't even tell me... Thanks for any and all help!

Hi Jeff and welcome. The screws should be 10-40 UNF ----- Metric Equivalent: Approximately 4.83 mm. Cheers and stay safe!

Jason L. · Answer

The holes are intended for mounting a Picatinny rail or optics mount. Information from user forums suggests that the GForce Saddlehorn's dovetail mount for the rear sight is an non-standard 11mm size, which means typical aftermarket mounts designed for other common lever-action rifles (like some Marlin or Rossi models) may not fit correctly.

Good evening to you!! I suggest taking it to a qualified gunsmith and have them mount the sight/mount of your choosing. Hope this helps. Have a good rest of your day.
