1903A3 Rear Site Dovetail

[Jim in Salt Lake]

Chuck's scope idea sounds like a neat idea, a Weaver K4 or Lyman Alaskan? If you want to stay with an iron sight, why not try a Lyman? Tons of 03's and 03A3's used them. How about a faux Sporter?

Chuck, If you take, and I did, an 03A3 rear sight and a M1 Carbine rear sight and put the bases together, you will see that with a little filing they will fit together. In otherwords, the male dovetail of the M1 Carbine sight will slide into the female dovetail of the 03A3 sight.

Very interesting ideas! I'll be playing around with these when I get home next week and will report back with what I end up doing.
