Lee Speed build rear sight options?
      #294191 - 23/01/17 01:00 PM

Hello everyone, I'm currently building a lee speed type sporter and I'm looking for a rear sight options to use, I have looked at the NECG 3 leaf sight, but I don't like the look of the sight it also seems a bit too high.
What other options are available? Hoping for 2/3 folding and fixed options.

Cheers

Marble's used to make a replica of the BSA sight, consisting of a 100 yard fixed leaf, folding 200 & 300 yard leaves and a flip-up sight marked to 1,000 yards.

I had a look at Marbles web site but it's not on there. I was sure I saw a link on here about a guy in Canada building them a few years ago, but I haven't been able to find it again. It was a repro of the original 3 leaf plus ladder sight.

I had a conversion with a Marble sight expert (worked there many years & has a lot of old sights) he said only very few of those sights were built more like prototypes & not put into full production !

Yes there was a guy making that sight, but you could near buy a whole Speeder for the price of them as I remember ?
