Narrative:
Pilot monitoring put the gear handle down as commanded. Immediately; the crew noticed the right main gear green light did not illuminate and the amber discrete gear light was illuminated. As captain; I made the decision to execute a missed approach. We advised ATC and went through the standard callouts for a missed approach and as the gear retracted we noticed a loud noise and jolting of the aircraft. We were very startled by this. ATC gave us instructions to fly a south heading at 3000 feet; at this time all indications were normal in the cockpit. We as a crew evaluated the situation and decided to extend the gear on our downwind. We got the same gear indications along with a EICAS right side brace. We immediately went to the QRH and followed the procedures. I decided to request a flyby the tower to see if the tower could tell if the right main gear was in fact down. As we slowed and configured with flaps we also got the gear not down and master warning light. ATC said the right main gear appeared to be down. With the indications in the cockpit I decided to have crash fire rescue equipment standing by. We then got on the sat phone and consulted with flight control; maintenance and flight ops. We as a crew and I as captain decided to attempt the landing with crash fire rescue equipment standing by. Thankfully the landing went smoothly and the right man gear did not collapse. We came to a full stop on the runway and waited for maintenance to pin the gear and tow us to the gate. We entered what we saw in the flight logbook.

Title: B767-300 Captain reported landing safely after receiving a right main landing gear warning.
Narrative: Pilot Monitoring put the gear handle down as commanded. Immediately; the crew noticed the right main gear green light did not illuminate and the amber discrete Gear light was illuminated.

As we slowed and configured with flaps we also got the gear not down and master warning light. ATC said the right main gear appeared to be down. With the indications in the cockpit I decided to have CFR standing by. We then got on the SAT phone and consulted with Flight Control; Maintenance and Flight Ops. We as a crew and I as Captain decided to attempt the landing with CFR standing by. Thankfully the landing went smoothly and the right man gear did not collapse.
