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.

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

"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.
