Hi

Took my Garand out for the first time and it shoots really well so I thought that NM sights would make a nice upgrade, specially because the target I was using was merely a dot compared to the fat front sights.

Is there anywhere in Canada or online I can buy them?
Found a few stores but it was sold-out.

I also found just a hooded .052 aperture. Will it fit the standard rear sight base?

thanks
 
Marstar has m-14 NM rear sights in stock, finally.....

Depending on the Garands rear sight pockets, some drop in, some require fitting. Garand sights fit the M-14 with-out fail, but it seems that some of the aftermarket re-po sights are a bit "large" for the Garands.... At least if the ones I've worked on.

The hooded aperture will require fitting. Last one I installed took about 1.5hrs on the bench with a fine set of files. Usually it's an hour long job and it's really easy to mess up!

Hope this helps a bit!
 
Weird....

There used to be 2. A "standard" and a "NM". I know I saw them both last week..... They were out of stock forever, and I got an email telling me they finally had stock...,

Only the Standards left I guess....

Try CGN member spcamno (sp?) he usually has an add up in the EE for NM rear sights. Commercial re-pro, of course!

Again fitmit might be a problem. As that is the one that I was trying to put on a Springfield Garand.....

Cheers!
