I’d like original sights, but lack the knowledge to get the right ones. The sights on the Web go from $30 to well over $300 bucks, but I doubt any I’ve found were “right” for the pre-64 300.
My 300 is in excellent condition, but I believe the bolt shroud has been re-blued as it has a purple hew. Also the floor plate is a very nice blue, maybe too nice. I’m not sure the floor plate was supposed to be blued like that. My pre-64 375’s floor plate is much different as are the sights and the color of the shroud on the bolt.
In other words, even if I get the right sights I don’t know if the rifle would be correct and I can’t afford to spend a Small fortune.
You’re saying is that rear sight isn’t right, correct? The front sight surely isn’t.
