Boyohboy, someone sold a 35 for two bills. Saved all the auction pics. I dropped out after $87 with three days to go. For those with inquisitive minds, the Williams Foolproof sight for the Knight Muzzleloader MK-85 / BK-85 has a very long windage arm, longest I have ever seen. IF cobbling together an ersatz #35, one could machine a replacement bolt catch box(?) with the dovetail, threaded hole for the elevation screw, and the gib screw... or so it seems...

:coffeecom

Wonder if the pivot screw at the rear of the bolt release box could be the location for the elevator screw of the sight?

The last Lyman 35 I sold went for $300 private party sale.
They are very desireable.
