Jeremy, all it takes is $$$. 🙂
  

Same thing my homebuilder said every time I asked for something to be added...."You can have anything you want....JUST TAKES $$$!"

Great looking Mistress!
All of the components (sights) are correct for a G7527R and the vintage is correct So I would call it a win.  
From the photos it appears there is a bright ring around the screw holes on the sight like someone used too wide of a screwdriver.  I would touch that up with cold-blue on a Q-tip or it will keep me awake at nights.
It also has the correct sling as a bonus.
Great score!
Best Regards,

 I did notice the scuffing around the screws and that was part of my questioning the originality.

Will do the cold blue trick and minimize the appearance.Cool

 You dont get to make Sammi comments or I will tell your old Dodge that you enjoyed riding around in my Ford 350.KissWink 

Range report will be a while, its hunting season. Time to tote around a model 70 or two and use them as designed.

 Help me out here, another 75 followed me home the other day.

I always admired the look of Vaver sights on a 75 so as luck would have it.....

Is this a factory outfitted G7527R or something put together after the fact.

Honestly, Bert is one of the most revered people within this club... he is also the forum's gate-keeper... between the "bots", russian hackers, asian porn infiltrators and general "knot-heads", his job is non-stop.  To top it off, it's a pretty thankless job.  I say "hats off to Bert"....he wants the best for the club and it's members.   I will rib him and he will return the favor in spades, but that's what friends do.  Cheers... 
  

I agree. Great assetKiss
