Yaknow... $700 isn't that bad a price for a 6 inch shooter if it has a NAVY rear sight on it, repro sights cost about $350-400 new..., but it certainly wouldn't have much collector value.

If it is a parts gun, you have to be sure that the front sight base is the correct size for a Navy rear sight... this sight base is taller to work with the taller rear sight... If it is a new standard 6" barrel, it would shoot WAY high if the sight base is too low.
