Norwegian krag front sight

[bob4wd]

This is an m1912/16 carbine, just like the one pictured above,so there should be a clue there, BTW. While taking the pictures that were really needed, I spotted the secret adjustment. It's pretty obvious once seen, but we both missed it the first time around. The rear sight blade itself is adjustable sideways. the reference lines are pretty faint, not at all visible in indoor lighting. Thanks for the suggestions,though.Attachment 77132Attachment 77131

Bad 'bob4wd'. You guys must of been smoking something out in California to miss those 'windage graduations' on the rear sight.

I believed you. I puzzled to come up with a goofy possible explanation! (LOL)

BTW - The screw in the 'front of the front sight' is there to retain the blade in its 'front to rear' dovetail.

Also, you can flip the rear-sight leaf all the way forward. There is a steel pin that projects through the top of the hand-guard. This is a 'pillar' for the leaf to rest on. There is also a "V" notch on the bottom of the rear-sight blade that becomes visible. This is the 'Battle Sight'. (It is useful for sighting through the clouds of smoke).

That was what I thought anywayzzz, doesn't matter. Now you have it.
