Title: Re: Questionable front sight Post by butlersrangers on Jul 29th, 2018 at 12:58pm
A toothbrush and some Hoppe's would probably clean up the sight, in question, nicely. (I now think it's correct, but, greasy & dusty, which made it suspect).
Attached are photos of a Krag model 1898 rifle and model 1899 carbine front-sights to show rather typical appearance of sight base attachment. IMHO - With short Krag barrels, (22" & 26"), this is the first place to look for 'mischief' and fakery. |
