I have a Marlin 1894 SBL in .357 and am considering getting an 1894 Dark in the same caliber. If I do so, I want to take the picatinny rail off of the SBL and put on the Skinner peep sight that comes on the 1894 Trapper. My question is this: are the front sights of the SBL and Trapper the same height so I can just swap rear sights?

This has some protection that the Skinner sight does not.  Says it works with the existing front sight.

I like the idea of it, but the brass just seems kind of tacky when the rest of the rifle is stainless steel.
