OK Lyman sight experts. What Say you?
      #276994 - 23/01/16 10:46 AM

I'm trying to help a friend nail down if this is actually a Lyman 36 or not. The box and paper work says it's for a 1924 or 1950 Mannlicher Schoenauer. I have not had much luck finding any reference to a 36 that wasn't a swing away sight. This looks like it should mount like a 36 but it does not pivot like a standard 36. Any thoughts? Did the 1924 take a different version of the 36? Any idea if this one is anywhere as valuable as a standard 36? Thanks in advance.

Am no expert but I do happen to have a Lyman catalogue here in front of me and on page 6 it lists the Series 36M-50 for Mannlicher-Schoenauer rifle models 1950 or later. Mounts on bolt release arm and pivots on the arms pivot so it clears the bolt and yes the one in your photo looks correct. The catalogue is #44 but I could not see a date in it. Hope that is of some help.
