Re: sights??

The Red River (Parts Unknown) sight availability is kind of sketchy. Seems you can never be sure if or when BACO will or might have some in stock. I have 3 of the '78 style sights. One is brand new and has not been mounted yet. For the most part I felt that they were a good sight. No they are not perfect and NO they are not up to MVA quality. But they are a solid sight and they do what they are supposed to. I like the fact that I don't have that long thing screw to worry about getting bent. All of mine have the hadley style eye piece and that is a nice feature. I have 2 of the long range and a mid range. Surprisingly the mid range will reach 1000 yards on a 38-55.
If you happen to run across one that someone is selling as new, buy it if the price is right. Never know when it just might turn out to be a good investment or a nice to have spare.
