    Canadian C2A1 / C1A1 rear sight value?

    I am just curious what's the current going rate for a Canadianicon C2A1 or C1A1 rear sight? I never could tell which is which. I have seen the version with the small disc but the one I have has the large disc, which I thought was for the C2A1.

    Yes, that's the C2A1 rear sight. This one's graduated to 1200 M...the C1 was only 600. Thus the sight height difference. We USED to get $100 CDN for these...don't know now days but I'm sure if you sell it on auction, it will find it's value.
    Regards, Jim

    C2A1 Rear Sight

    That sight base looks unusual to my eye for some reason. What is that ski jump, scooper portion at the front of the base? Thanks.

    Just the shape of the base. It is the same on the other side.

    I also put this sight on the Indian Ishapore 1A1 I had since I didn't like the original sight the Ishapore came with. I recently had the 1A1 deactivated, so I took this sight back off and put the original back on.
