Anyone know where to get rear sight parts for a M1. I'm trying to restore a Danish '43 Springfield Armoury Garand to as issued back in mid 1943. I need the locking bar and parts.
Any help or direction would be appreciated. Thanks :beerchug:

Thanks Ramboueille. :thup:
Reese Surplus has the lockbar only.
In Canada, MANY of the Danes had lockbar sights. You might be better off buying a donor rifle, swapping the site, and flipping the extra M1. If you're lucky you may also get other parts you need ;)

Be aware that repro's are being made. They have the open arrows like original Winchester items, and the edges of the knobs are squared, not rounded. Numrich carries the repro's, and they are honest enough to point out that they are repro.
