james-l,I'm sure many( if not most) are machined, that would be the easiest way to do it with correct tooling on a production basis. For a "one off" modification, drilling and setting a pin in would be the easiest way, IMO.

Mike I'm sure you are right however it looks like a carbine staff will work,they are close to the correct length and have a provision for the spring. main difference as near as I can see is the range markings, the photo in Olsons book is in yards or meters, the military ones I guess are marked in mils. Got one on order, we'll see.

Happy to report that a sight from a 1909 Argentine carbine was a perfect match except for the range markings, even has the correct spring which is different than a rifle sight.Jim A.
