Gave up and sold my 03 over a decade ago because I could no longer see the thin sights. -
I never owned a 1903 and I've had a lot of rifles. I thought that was kind of Un-American so I finally picked one up and immediately sold it. I shoot everything(almost) I own and even though there's five different ways to use the rear sight I couldn't use it at all. I don't own an 03a3 either right now, but I'd sure like to pick one up. I hate old time mauser v notch sights but miraculously I can actually still hit pretty good with them even though it's just a blur. Cheaters sound like a good idea but I worry about eye protection.
If I should die before I wake...great,a little more sleep.
