Last Saturday, I was browsing at the Michigan Antique Arms show, seeing little that interested me.

Suddenly, a brown cardboard box, almost 'closed' at the back of a guy's table 'called' to me.

I looked closer, saw a familiar shape, and asked permission to go through the box.

I asked about a 'bundle deal' on three sights and a U.S. model 1876 tool.

The gentleman was glad to be rid of them and sold the four items to me for $80 - total.

I replaced a sheared-off knob on the 1902 sight and cleaned old cosmoline off the parts, when I got home.

He was happy. I'm real happy!
