Here is the patent on the sight - (I spelled the name wrong on my previous post - I still don't think it's need the 2nd 'I' though ...sorry Gus)Swebilius sight August 1915
Gene - you can always be counted on for the highly technical stuff. Very interesting. I like the sight detail but also interesting to note that they were working on both a pump and semi-auto version. A Marlin semi-auto in .250 circa around 1920 - what a deal. I want one! I often think that if I were to win a big powerball, I would be digging up patent drawings like this and commission the building of rifles that never got off the ground. This would be a neat example. There are patent drawings of rifles from John Browning, Andrew Burgess etc. that might have been really neat rifles. Another one I would have built would be one like the Savage .32/20 prototype
