I put a Skinner aperture sight and front post on my Marlin 1894c last spring. I took the front sight hood off at that time, because it just seemed to clutter up the sight picture. I haven't used the hood since.
I'm just curious if anyone keeps a front sight hood on when using aperture sights or if there is any good reason to do so.
