    M1 Carbine PO-Q Front Sight

    I have read that PO-Q front sight is rare. Looking for estimate on a value?

    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. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    Used in the last block of Quality hardware production. Not rare, just not a common one. As to value, it's what ever the person in need of one is willing to pay. And how many are for sale at any given time. Otherwise its just a standard WW2 sight.

    Always with those negative waves Bruce......
    Think positive ..........and have a little faith Baby..

    I'd estimate $50 +, more if on Auction, especially with competing bidders.

    Hold On !!!
    I have QHMC 4,751,96X that has N marked front sight. I just checked it for this thread. My current N frt sight has a right blade that is damaged. Would be very easy to lightly bend it back and forth to snap the outer right lobe off.

    So correction........... These PO-Q's are every where !! Cost/value about $35 that includes shipping. YEP $35 TOTAL.

    And YES I can be Private messaged or Emailed by clicking on my username above my Avatar.

    Just so you know............ Looking forward to hearing from you

    Thx
