    photos of USMC sights on Model 1903 rifle

    I finally got some better photos of the USMC front sight which is thicker and taller with a different profile and the rear sight #10 on the sight leaf. It has been said that the US Army also used this sight too. Most were replaced by the USMC before WW2.

    With the sight leaf down as in my photo, most rifles are on target at 200 yards rather than the 547 yards of the issue sight.Attachment 116086Attachment 116087
