One question I didn't ask in a previous post was, does anyone know of a company that makes Fiber Optic sights for the Encore 12" 44 Mag barre?

                                          Thanks, Mark

Not sure but I know some of the TC sights are fiber optic. Usually the pistol barrel sights are solid  blue steel, but you might be able to interchange the fiber optic rifle sights as the screw and barrel contour are likely the same.

I talked to Thompson and Tru Glow before I posted this question tonight. Thompson said they used to make them but no longer do. Tru-Glow stated that their muzzleloader TG598 or TG 598x may work if the barrel sight spacing for the mounting holes were the same and if the taper of the barrel was the same as the rifle or muzzleloader offerings. I did contact the second source that Thompson gave me and that was Williams Sight Company. The gemtelman I spoke with couldn't say wether they still make them or if they even did at one time. He is going to check and call me back on Monday. Anyone else having an idea to share please respond.

                                Thanks again. Mark

From my searches it looks as though everything out there is for the Omega ML, too.
