WTB Krag 1901 rear sight.

[Don1357]

Next year I want to try my hand at long distance with my single shot 45-70 (H&R Buffalo Classic with a 32" barrel). To that end I'm trying to source a 1901 Krag rear sight in reasonable shape. With a bit of patience they can be found on ebay for around $50, but if a fellow reloader here has one and is happy with that price please let me know.

His is $95. I hope he gets that but I'm looking for a better deal. On eBay I see one that sold for $42 and another for $58, with a bit of luck I'll find one around that. I have between now and eally spring to hunt for it.

I have a 1902 with screws and it has the flip up peep on it for $65.00 + $5.00 for shipping if you can use it.

Thanks for the offer. I'm specifically looking for the 1901 because it has an ungodly amount of elevation, can adjust for windage, and has a built-in peep hole. Without a peep hole I may as well not have a sight at all :D

Got my sight! Please delete.
