I would have liked to have had the front sight for one of my T's! That rifle sold cheap.

It's a gold bead front sight on that gun, not the original red bead. Those red bead front sights were taken off 99T's as soon as the gun was bought, I think.

That's only cuz other folks jump in to correct me before you get here. grin

My G&H is factory installed and I can't see under it. Keep forgetting how many holes are there.

Actually, it you look close at the zoomed in pic it looks gold with a ring of red around the base?
