Pictures are not clear… descriptions are not good either… Honestly, I bid considerably more than what I won them for.  The Mid-range vernier needs the eye disc installed on the opposite side.  On the other auction, most of the pile will be tossed after I pull the windage front sight and carbine ladder sight out.  I so badly wanted to ask for better pics but knew if I did it might create more seller & buyer interest…

I would say it was a very good buy on the Mid-range Vernier tang sight!  I would buy a truckload of them at that price.

I was hoping the serious guys that watch for this stuff were too busy in CodyCool…. the final verdict will be when the package arrives this week.  Unfortunately, I will have to wait a few extra days before I get to examine the sights as I will be at the KC show…

Good eye, Ben. Could be a few more bonus pieces in the grab bag. Not many parts sellers at the Cody show. Enjoy the KC show!

Someday I’ll make the trek to Cody… people tell me I’d do well with my sights & parts… having inventory after Tulsa, Reno & Denver is the issue. Maybe next year…
