Confused on new inland......blued....

unless it's installed backwards

Yes, the sight is definitely installed backwards in the receiver. I really hadn't considered damage to the sight (or the receiver) as a result of this when I posted. It would be nice to see the opposite side of the sight to determine if it is badly marred by a drift, which would reduce value. I suspect the dovetail can be peened to properly secure a staked adjustable replacement sight just fine. Whatever, at this point I think that flip sight is real and worth something. JMHO

ok here it is, I was only assuming it was a knock off sight, im starting to think its not. you guys said it was on backwards, and also from what ive seen it was put on from the wrong side. it wasn't even, even with the left side of the receiver. so I removed it the same way I suspect it was installed. I see no damage to either part....here is more pics...thanks
