The 1894 SBL is crafted with a polished stainless finish that not only enhances its visual appeal but also ensures durability against the elements. Atop this finely tuned instrument sits a ghost ring rear sight paired with a tritium fiber optic front sight—an arrangement engineered for rapid target acquisition even under low-light conditions.
