I picked up a very nice Ishapore 2A from a friend the other day. Makes for an interesting difference from my Mausers, to be sure
That said, there is an thick coat of black paint over the rear sight, preventing any adjustment. I'm pondering three options:
1) Simply cleaning the paint off the stock rear sight and using it.
2) Cleaning the rear sight & then putting it in the gun safe while using a Mojo Microclick aperture sight http://www.mojosights.com/MicroClick.html
3) Cleaning the rear sight & then putting it in the gun safe while using rear sight base scout mount for a red dot sight. I don't much like optics, but a 1x red dot might be interesting to try.
I don't want to do anything to permanently modify the rifle or even alter it's looks very much but I'd like a somewhat more usable sight set up than a black paint 80 meter battle sight
Thanks!
