John,
From a thread a few weeks back, discussing a Navy which had the (improper) Swiss/1900/'06 style front sight installed, I remember someone pointed out that a Navy sight would not have serrations on the top of the angled rear portion. (Mind you, now, I'm not talking about the sight block. A Navy's would be squared at the back, not ramped and serrated, yes?) I enlarged the posted pic, and the top third of the blade isn't serrated--that's what got me goin'... Were such sight blades installed on other non-Navy variations?
