Thread: Did the Isrealis modify the rear sight on 7.62mm 98K conversions?

[mike webb]

Any German K98 rear sight would suffice though ideally it should have WaA37 or WaA359 on the side of the base. No big trick to resolder the sight base on as the screw on the top of the sight base at the rear extends into a blind hole in the barrel to center it. Some even epoxy glue the base on which I have heard works as well. I may even have a WaA 359 sight complete, I'll check.

Well the sight base (the part soldered to the barrel) is already there. I just need the elevator (ramp, whatever), spring and leaf with slider. If you have an appropriate set, drop me a line at the email mentioned above and lets make a deal.
