At your age, get the bigger hole. I'm 56, the smaller the hole the fuzzier the front sight for me.

I bought .050 and .093 sights. I thought I'd use the .050 for target and .093 for hunting. Turned out that the .050 was too small for any purpose for me. I'm 56.

Francois: Your Krag appears very nice. You did a good job matching the wood finish of your Stock and Hand-guard. I hope your Krag is a real 'tack driver' for you (a very accurate rifle)! It is good to see a Krag in France. Enjoy.

I guess the photo of my school gun (above) is only - and theoretically at that - "safe" from unauthorized copying while on the original host site?

I don't know Dick. I have never copied any of your photos.
I try to use my own pictures or ones that are already in the public domain.

Wasn't you, Chuck, but rather "oxi81". However, I believe I have used that one on this board, so it is available - but that is why I started to mark them.
Ned - you do not need to take it down, but thanks for offering to do so. Guess I was just 'thinking out loud' and probably should have kept it to myself.
There is a guy in the midwest who runs a sort of "museum on line" that HAS managed to copy several of my pics, as well as many from Ken McPheeters and a host of others, all without credit or note of any sort. He doesn't even have the courtesy to respond to emails.
Going back under my rock, now. :-)

Hi Dick. Sorry, I missed your answer.
Don't worry, I used your picture for this thread and on this forum only. ;)

Hello, and thanks for the note. Not a problem - after all, it was me who put the pics out there - and - I have since learned that it IS possible to copy them from my hosting site even though they let you believe it isn't. Have a great day.
