I'm playing around with the rifle range accuracy differences between the USMC #10 sight set and the small aperature fine blade of a standard 03. I like the #10's but I think they gain battlefield utility at the cost of rifle range accuracy. While my eyes can still use them I want to see if the stock sights will help me on paper. Ive been posting on the boards for various sight parts and members have been extremely helpful in helping me attain parts. Thank you all.

This is my future front sight attached to a very nice base obtained from CMPicon member ScotM1A (Thank you).



As you can see it is missing the blade pin. I had ordered parts from Numrich prior to Scot finding my post and when I received them I was unhappy to find that the pictures on their site did not represent what was sent. Their advertizing, I suspect, shows GI parts not the repro's that their written ads admit the items are. The copy is accurate but the pictures are not. Anyway I sent all the parts back but the front sight pin. When I tried to install the front sight pin on my new sight it shattered (should have sent it back to).

I still need a front sight blade pin. Anyone have one in inventory?
