I have 2 of these which are identical. Could someone please clarify for me what type they are? Both are marked "SA" on the bottom and came off of Savage 99's. I have had them identified as 29 1/2 and 30 1/2 and cannot find anything definitive on the internet. What are the differences between the two types?

Pics don't work.
A 29 1/2 and 30 1/2 are basically the same, they are both windage adjustable but one will have a flip down aperture and the other will be threaded for a screw in aperture.
Some guy on Ebay right now has one listed incorrectly as a 30 1/2 cause thats whats stamped on the bottom but it's been made into a 29 1/2 cause the stem was swapped out to a flip down peep.

Ya, those are both 30 1/2's if their threaded. Doubt they've been swapped.
Don't get to excited on the price of the one on Fleabay, it ain't gonna sell at that price.
Believe it or not I see more of the 30 1/2's than I do of the 29's. Not sure why or if one was more mass produced than the other, just an observation.
Nice sights.
