Can anyone possibly help with a type A express sight (in particular the 500 blade) from either a 9.3; 10.75 or 404 please?

Dont mind to buy a complete sight. Please PM me if you can help

good luck with your search but I fear you have to file it from a piece of steel

Once had exactly the same problem.(500m blade on a 10,75x68 missing). Impossible to find one.
So I had to go the hard way.
Found a maschine shop . Making a steel bar with the correct radius and dimensions.
Milling off the hatched partitions in the follwing drawing.
A little file work and an engraver for the rest.

Good luck

G'Day Fella's,

Gen_Hicks, have a look in the www.recknagel.de web site/catalog.

The Australian agent for Recknagel is Mr Graeme Spraggon and his email address is graemesp@bigpond.com.

Hope that helps

Avagreatweekendeh!

The Recknagel sight blades can´t be modified to fit the Mauser.
They are complete differently constructed.
