Gday guys,
Long story short I'm in the market to get myself a 7x57 with open sights. I initially wanted to get an older Brno model or even cz 550 but they're rarer than hen's teeth in Australia. I'm now thinking of getting a Schultz and larsen hunter traveller.
The only thing is they come without sights and there's no factory option to include them so they'll have to be retro fitted. I got a quote from a gun smith to install a folding three leaf sight and it was $1000 without regulating them so that's out of my price range. I figure the next best thing is to just get a fixed sight, sight it 2" high at 100m and shoot fairly flat out to 250.
But I have no idea of manufactures of open sights, who's good who to avoid and any other useful information about it.
If folks can make some suggestions itd be greatly appreciated
Cheers
