    K11 Sight Change

    I replaced my K11 front sight with a taller blade. Can I easily replace the rear sight leaf with one from a K31icon so the ranges match? Thanks for any input.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle.

    As far as I am aware they are both different rear sights and shouldn't be able to be exchanged between models. Even if they were the distance markings wouldn't match as they both have a different sight radius due to different barrel length and sight placement.

    Not sure why you would want to change the rear sight. Both rifles are very accurate as is. Higher front sight should bring you where you want to be for your shooting distance.
