I have a set of Jaeger iron sites on a Remington 700 action 375 that I had built about 15 years ago -- the project at hand is to replace the rather rough sites with a shallow rear V and bead front -- but apparently Jaeger is no longer in business -- does anyone have knowledge as to whom if anybody may have acquired the parts and parts and or carried on with some of the Jaeger products?

I thought you were referring to sights for a German Jaeger rifle!

New England Custom Guns is the one outfit I know of that inherited the Paul Jaeger mantle. Their founder, Dietrich Apel, was the last CEO of Paul Jaeger, then he started his own company. I believe he is now retired, but if there's any outfit that can fill your needs, I think this would be the one. Other than having a custom metalsmith make you what you want.

Just got a hold of them -- wonderful outfit and yes they are the recipients of the Jaeger "stuff" -- they have the parts I need.
Thanks
