I picked up a very nice 99F (250-3000)that has scope mounts but the rear sight has been removed. Are the rear sights still available? Any suggestions as to where to look?
Serial No. 768XXX
Thanks
Mike D.

Mike,
Yours is for the later F. Last of the 9xxxxx's and later.
I've got a couple left here for the earlier F's. Send me a PM if your interested. Mine are about new.
When it comes to choosing friends....I'm at an age where I'd rather have 4 quarters than 100 pennies.
