This is unbelievable...
Want to know WHY all those Longbranch rifles are constantly found wearing the Mk2 sight?
Got these ten Mk1 sights from AIM Surplus today---and EVERY ONE of them is a small aperture Longbranch. (The first ten I got from Aim were 8 Fazakerley, 1 Longbranch and 1 Savage.)
Five are slightly used with bright range scales and five are re-blued with dark range scales.
They arrived in sealed boxes of five each---who knows where they've been...but they haven't been on any of my LB rifles.
Well, until now.
These things used to bring a healthy price----about $100----when they could be found.
Now I'm sick of them.

So
What are you going to do with that many sights anyway? Just curious.

I have a No4 rifle backsight collection, some on rifles, some off. There are a couple types I don't have and these LBs ought to make good trade material.
If anyone has a small aperture N67, an Ishapore made Mk1, or a newish Savage and you might want an LB, contact me off the board and we'll talk.
