The flush nut sight was replaced by the type 1 lockbar, then type 2 & 3. As the flush nut sights were replaced during overhaul they were scrapped. Why save a superseeded part?
They are hard to find because of this so, supply & demand.

Great rifle! Good luck with it! I notice the front sight has a plug over the set screw. Am I correct that this is a lead plug and that not many Garand
's today still have that plug in them? If so, to me, that makes the rifle even more interesting. Not sure if that is an urban legend....

Its a metal cap put over the sight screw and no not many are found this way.

Yes, the front sight screw seal was about number 2 of the changes...the round firing pin being probably the first...there aren't many of either left. I have them though.
