Howdy Folks!
I have a shooter Garand that I love to hunt with. While hunting with it though, I came to the conclusion that the rear sight aperture seems too small for hunting purposes. It kind of makes me question how the average American infantryman could find anything in the sights that was moving or when the light started to die off.
Now I'm not sure if what I have is a NM sight or not, but I am thinking about drilling it out to larger diameter aperture so I can make it more useful to me for hunting.
Has anyone done this before? Or can a guy get different rear apertures and avoid drilling out a perfectly good target sight?
Thanks!
