    Murata Single Shot (type 18?) Parts needed

    Hi folks!

    I recently picked up a Japaneseicon single shot, bolt action rifle. I've identified it as a Murata, I believe, Type 18. It's in GREAT shape except it's missing the rear sight and cleaning rod. I've searched the net and all the "Usual Suspects" with no luck. I'd really like to find a rear sight for this rifle. I can live without the cleaning rod.

    Thanks!

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

    Type 18

    Thanks RCS. It sure went fast! I've found pictures on another site so I know what I'm looking for, just not where to find it. Mine is in a lot better shape than that one. I'll keep looking.
