Is anyone familiar with the early Lyman 35 peep sight for Mausers? I recently acquired a nice rifle with one installed and it's missing the dual apertures. It should have a small flip down aperture on the front end of the sight, and a larger removable target sight on the rear. The windage adjustable aperture base is still intact. The sight base is otherwise in great shape. As far as I can tell, it should look something like the ones shown here: http://ps-2.kev009.com/ohland/Cast_Bullet/Lyman_35/Lyman_No35_Sight.html
I'm not able to confirm this, but there may be two variants. One type that is dual aperture with threads for the target sight, and one that is a single flip down aperture without. For what it's worth, I don't see any threads. Having used other Lyman type sights, I would prefer the target sight.
I'm finding that the 35 is a fairly rare sight, is there a more common or newer sight that I could use for parts, or are parts available with other sources?
