I am looking for a target front sight for my 1903A3, Lyman made a one piece replacement sight P/N 17A XNB or Redfield made one to mount in a 1903 front base. Does anyone have one that they are willing to part with, my old eyes are having trouble with the front blade sight.
Thanks, Harry

Harry:

I had two, sold one, need the other for the same reason as you..............they show up with some regularity on that popular auction site, sometimes Gunbroker. You are correct, you need the 17A XNB.

Just looked, I DO have a Redfield 719004 No. 68 Globe Front With Integral Base , Springfield 1903 W/ Inserts, .750" High.

The box also contains a loose 03 (not 03A3) front sight collar.

I could be talked out of it.........PM me if you're interested.
