Just wondering if someone can ID these 2 sights and what might be the model of rifle they belong on?  Also, what might be a fair price to ask if I was wanting to sell them?  Thanks in Advance

Both sights are the standard No. 44A Carbine sights found Pre-1933 Model 1892 and Model 1894 Saddle Ring Carbines. The top sight in your pictures is missing it’s sliding elevation piece. The bottom pictured sight is 100% complete.

Thanks Bert.  Any idea what a fair market selling price might be for each piece?

The sight with missing hardware is worth approximately $75. The complete sight is worth $150 – $200.
