Re: Florecent Fiber Front Sight

There a lot of inserts that could be milled down to fit though.<br /><br />An intere...

Re: Please Explain?

Looks like a 46 star to me.
Bottom row of stars is all in a straight line and the third and fourth rows from bottom look to be in line.

Re: Looking for Opinions and or Options Krag 22 Steven

Id reline it myself.

Re: Redfield no-drill sight

Theres one on eBay right now for $195. I think thats high but itll probably sell. Id look for one at more like $150.

To remove the cutoff, use a small thin blades screwdriver to depress the ball detent while pulling out. No big trick at all.
