    Paper Weight

    I bought a TRW M-14 receiver heel at Camp Perry one year. I thought I'd clean it up for a nice paper weight.

    Today I thought a set of junk sights would look good. Then what about a selector knob? I thought I'd be best off by asking this question here.

    What do I need to add to this guy & where can I look for them?
    Not super fine funtioning parts, but paper weight grade.

    The sights should be easy to get, there are enough Norinco rifles around that cast off sights should be everywhere. I had three sets I sold just recently for $50CDN. The selector could be harder.

    I have an M14icon heel paperweight. I cut off the selector tab so it will sit flat on a table/desk/etc and was re-parked. Mine also has a rear sight and stripper clip guide installed.
