Title: Question about old peep sights
Post by: Screaminreelz on May 06, 2009, 06:23:55 PM: My dad gave me an old box of stuff the other day and I was going through it and found a bunch of old front sight parts and aperatures for old peeps sights. Any idea who makes these? I'm thinking Lyman but I can't find any distinguishing marks that say so. The one on the right is a Redfield and the only reason I know is it's written on it. Probably going to throw them on ebay or something not sure what the heck to do with them but from what I've seen some are going for about $80.

Also found an old TC brass butt plate in there too. Check'em out.

Any help would be appreciated.
