    Any ORIGINAL 6 digit Inlands out there with SQ S flip?

    Trying to get a data sheet completed. Have a Inland 6 digit serial# 3907** here with square S flip sight base.

    Any similar out there?

    Humped. Appears to be the classic coat of cosmolin and 375 degrees in the oven. Inland never put that sight on. Too many punch marks on the outside, and how do you explain the inside of the sight base side walls being beat up? Your chisel mark? Agreed, you can see it, but the alignment just doesnt jive, a portion of it is 'under' the sight base. Wont find this on an original factory installed sight.............Sorry Charlie, that dog dont hunt.

    I've got one 6 digit Inland, but it's just got the small "S" on the left side with no other markings. If it's staked, does it look typical for the way Inland did them? - Bob

    Bob,
    It is staked with the side Chisel type we find on Inlands.
    Sure looks like it's been there forever.

    Anyone know which CC letter(s) I should check?

    Two of the four 6 digit Inlands I have has the standard "s". One has "wsi" and the fourth has a replaced adjustable sight. I do have an Inland in the 3 mil range that has a squared "s".

    Charlie, the 2563XX I got from a very trustworthy source (unlike the one we discussed previously) has a small "S" on the left side with no other markings. It's not staked.

    If this sights been on there that long, I'm sure it'll sit still long enough to post some pics.
