    Looking for Remington 37 Rangemaster sights

    I am hoping to put some aperture factory sights back on a Remington 37 Rangemaster.

    The sights were lost somewhere along the way when a scope was installed, and I would like to be able to have the option for either configuration for my son to learn on.

    That's a nice old rifle. You might want to look for a set of Redfield Olympic or International sights. Does your rifle have bases for those sights? They were pretty much standard issue back when your rifle was made.

    the 37 came with a particular base that was rather odd angle for the Remington Made sight. When they come up for sale they are quite expensive.

    Can you post a picture of what you are looking for? I bought out a gunsmith's estate and have a bunch of old sights and bases.

    Here are some pics I found of different sights that were available on the 37

    The front sights seemed to be this standard Redfield one, no matter which rear sight was used.
