Getting parts from GPC (Numrich) is a crap shoot. I've received repro parts when the text in their ad did not indicate that they were repro. Also, I've received parts that were unuseable, incorrect and useable but poor condition. I have also received some very nice parts from them. Their shipping charges are a bit high.

Their service was fast. My only issue is that the part shown on their sales site does not represent what you actually get. I suspect they use NOS GI parts for the catalog instead of the item they are actually holding in inventory. I was not at all impressed with their front sight blade holder.

Sarco says they have them for a $1. No idea as to quality. Unless you are a purist a finishing nail will do the job. It is soft steel that you can cut off to length and use cold blue on the ends after polishing.

Ames and I think Chestnut also has them for $1. They all want $10 for shipping. I will investigate the nail method or just add a few things to my list and make the $10 shipping more palatable.

Geta bag of nails and do it yourself. Numrich has a bag of nails ready to ship to guys who pay a buck each. Avoid them.
