    I am sorry, but I need to see that before I believe that. Not 1 source support that. Even the numbers dont add up to that being anywhere near true. Every single picture I have found online have the roll pin sight. Mine is the only one I have been able to find with original sight. So I need to see pictures of the front sights to believe that all B&N rifles were original sight. From everything I have been able to find, only 40 rifles have the original sight. As I said, this is confirmed first hand here in Denmarkicon as well. So I am sorry, but thats simply not correct.

    Grabben this picture from a youtube video. This is a VERY different rear sight. This one came from RGTC and its a Norwegianicon rifle (has the notch). Also this rifle was rebarreled in 1961 and had the markings for it. There are no good pictures of the front sight, but being rebarreled in 1961, I have no doubt, this has roll pin sight.
