At most of the chunk gun matches, including the Alvin York shoot, the guns are inspected before the match. They have
certain rules concerning conformity to traditional style of guns. I don't think sight extensions would be allowed. In
reality if you have a gun with a 42" barrel, and can see the sights OK, there would be no reason to try to extend the
sight radius. My favorite chunk gun had a 46" barrel, mainly because you get tired just cleaning that darn thing between
shots.........Don
