This is my first post but have been reading things around here for a while. I was going through some of my old sights and found a really nice 56A. I had no idea that they were pretty rare. I sold my model 94 but still own a Sav99, Mar1897 and 336C. I must have found it when going through some of my Grandpa's stuff. Nice old sight. I might trade it off.

I bought a Marlin waffle top with a Redfield sight on it. I think some would ahve given me what I paid for the combination. Had more than one offer to sell the sight. Look close at the trade.

That's not how we do it around here. If we find a mould or sight or even a box of cartridges we set out in search of a rifle to make use of what we've found.;-)

That Texas dude has the right idea, especially if that is the old sight, it is easier to find a gun for it than it is a sight for the gun. lol
I have been known to buy a rifle just to get the sight. lol
