    Size of Wallet?

    Hello All: see this E-Bay auction:

    Authentic US WW2 Irwin Pedersen M1 Carbine Flip Sight | eBay

    Oftentimes, I've thought to myself how much money I spend on this hobby. Well...

    Enough said! Look what this sight ended up going for!

    He had other IP parts auctions that just closed, and several new items that were just listed. Here's a chance for more IP "learning" to take place. Note that his slide has a "2" on the side. - Bob

    You are right! Took a look. The bolt - marking on the lug is identical to the mark on the IP bolt on the IP that I have...and the '2' op slide mark. Interesting!

    Be glad you didn't buy that rear sight.

    Agree with Bruce, someone will be very upset.

    Bogus Rock-Ola as well.

    I agree that it looks real. Too much money though.

    Is it the size of the aperture is too big?

    I think they see the leaf as humped but the base real. But I might be wrong about that...
