So my major question is have you found anything else other than what you wrote before? Still 4895? I also have a pristine Redfield peep for an American Krag. It seems to not want to mount. Ideas concerning that? Thanx for your and any of the brethren's time on this.


Is your Redfield peep the model that utilized the magazine sideplate screw? #70 I believe? If so, I'm wondering if the magazine cut-off lever needs to be modified as with the American Krags! Somewhere in my photobucket stuff I have photo of directions for this

Lemme see if i can find them. I've modified my Krag cut off levers with a dremel cutting wheel with no issues.

Should in their own confines with forked heads
Have their round haunches gored."
