IF you could find a set of bases (I might know where you could find a set), you could always mount a low powered Scope on your #3 instead of drilling and tapping for a rear Peep Sight.

I have a #3 in .22 Hornet with a scope mounted. The carbine came drilled and tapped from the factory, so going that route wouldn't really change the collector's value of it.

PM me if you're interested in knowing where you might be able to find Bases and Rings.

Leupold 2.5x, 1-4, or 1.5-5. All are single shot friendly, and offer adequate power for your trajectory.
