There seems to be a lot of custom rifles for sale these days which I get first look at. Most of them are not something I need so if you are looking for something specific let me know. If I can Ill put you in touch with the seller and get out of the way.

There has been a lot of really great stuff enter the marketplace in the last two years, so much in fact I have had to find new owners for several of my shotguns and a few rifles.

Michael,

I am always looking for any after market gadget made for or adapted to fit the 1903 Springfield.

I have attached a picture of a sight micrometer made by Harry Pope for the Krag rifle and adapted for use on the 03 as an example of what I need.

That one's easy - one that I nearly had, but slipped through my fingers because the seller hadn't realised until the very last moment that he wasn't allowed to sell the rifle... A Parker-Hale Dewar rifle!

for more information, see here: Parker-Hale Dewar rifle

Michael,
Yes my wish list is getting shorter. This is one item I would like to remove from my wish list.

How about cocking piece peep sights for Krag & Springfields?

I was given a pretty nice Krag sporter with only the issue open sights, but it needs a peep.

Ron,
The Belding & Mull Cocking Piece sight or the Lyman No.103 Windgauge Cocking Piece Sight would look really neat on a Krag.

Hello Michael,

If on the slight chance you should ever run across anything Pre-1900 and Norwegian, I would be very interested.

Especially ones like this.



By the way, I cannot thank you enough for sharing your knowledge and showing the pictures of your wonderful collection.

Warmest Regards, John
