Can you imagine how the original owner felt when that showed up? Wow is all I can say! Love that rear sight and long barrel!

That is very neat Loggah. Cool sights! That extra length octagon barrel is a very good look. Just a great 1899.

The rear sight is pretty unique,its so fine a notch that it was probably only really good for target shooting,in low light its hard to see. The only other one i have seen was on a model 94 Winchester rifle also made in 1905. Stroebels sight book dont list them either.

That Chas. Daniels sight is in nice shape. Once and awhile I notice beat up ones with the top of the ring cut off or something for sale. Nice to see one that's in good shape.
