Open sights (african style) for 1909 mauser??
I'm building a 9,3x62 in an argentinian 09 action with a Lothar Walther barrel, now I'm looking for a nice rear sight, wich one I can use and where I can buy it through internet?
Thanks

I was poking around on the internet and found: http://www.z-hat.com/Parts.htm

They have some good looking sights listed. Good luck.

Traditional express sights:

Look under "Products and Accessories", then "What's Available"

Also try: www.brownells.com

Brownells Inc. and New England Arms have the best island sights available today...

Lorenzo not for sure but here in Europe it's almost iompossible after Sept 11 to have any gun part from usa , it means a simple rifle screw forbiden !!, and now Brownells cant' send acra or recoil pad or a checkering tool [Frown] , no body can send to me a Target rear sight for a Garand , and then you'll be out of luck with the sights , try http://www.recknagel.com/ there are the manufacturer of the NECG sights , for me the best on iron sights

Lorenzo,

Can't help with the sight but just thought I'd say you appear to be building a twin to my rifle!

Those walther barrels can shoot! If you do your bit it'll put 5 in a ragged hole. I struggle to bench shoot conistantly but it puts 4 out of 5 in one (enlarged) hole. The other opens it up to still under an inch.
