Re: Model 14 rear sight

Hey Jim

I put a USPS money order in the mail this morning for the Model 14 rear sight and elevator. If you would like to send me your email address I can send you tracking information.

My friend Bud lived about 15 miles SW of Fosston he said he didn’t know Tom when I asked him

Thanks
Scott ...

Re: Model 14 rear sight

I assume the sight comes with the correct elevator? I’ve read you’re the expert on 14’s so I’ll take your word for it. I’ll try and get a money order in the mail the next couple days. I’ll send you tracking info when it goes out

Thank you

Re: Model 14 rear sight

Appreciate the info….good to know about the EBay sights-there seems to be a lot of them on there. I held off buying a sight off eBay for that reason. Next question is where can I get the correct rear sight? Pictures would be helpful so I know what Iam looking for

Re: Model 14 rear sight

Thanks for the reply….the barrel code is BX which I think might be 1933 ? The serial number is 116785. Short version of a long story is the rifle was my Grandfather’s that moved around in the family before my time. I got the rifle back a couple of years ago and it was missing the rear sight. Another ...

Model 14 rear sight

I’ve tried using the search function but I guess I don’t understand how it works. I have a Model 14 that I think? Is a 1931 model. Iam wondering what the correct rear sight is. It currently has the “wheel sight” but it is missing the detent spring- is there such thing as finding a replacement? I ...
