Title: Re: Preferred sight for shooting-1901 vs 1902

After I turned 60 last year I did notice that it wasn't as clear a picture as it had been but my groups haven't opened up that much yet, but I know the time is coming.

Butlersranger is right about the Redfield peep and one of those might find it's way here if I am able to scrounge one up cheap enough, just because.

I learned to shoot almost 50 years ago on a M1903.  My best friends dad, who was a serious competitor back in the 30s taught us.  So I learned how to use the M1903 sight before I knew about what a peep sight was.

I just picked up a Krag about a month ago after searching for a nice one for about 5 years.  Then this dropped into my lap and couldn't turn down the offer.

I've pretty much decided to get the one with the 1902 sight so I can justify the difference to the comptroller!  ;D

She's pretty lenient, but that doesn't mean she's a dummy!
