Welcome to the forum!

Their heights are marked alphabetically, with the highest being an 'A', and I don't know how far down they go to. ('E', 'F'.... ?)

I was going through my parts yesterday and saw a new 'C' blade and pin still in the wrapper. You can have it to get you running if you want it. Just send me a PM with an address and I'll mail it out.

A size "C" is common. You might try - Bill Ricca's Home Page Contact him.

Make sure you get the GI pin with the blade. Those tiny pins are tough to find.

I was wondering what happened to the original sight. This isn't a restored drill rifle is it?

How would I know if it was a restored drill rifle?

Could you post a photo of the cut-off?

[Stone7Romeo]

will do?

Here are the pics. I really hope this is not a drill rifle. I want to take this our on a hunt next weekend.
