G.T.S/T barrels report...

Hi to all, Actually Olle, that is a standard Mauser K98 blade! Don, does have the custom front sight blade to profile and install, it used the one shown only because I was pestering him to get pictures up!.....

.... But, I mailed Ed's out yesterday, and he has a profiled Mauser custom front, profiled and installed, and it is shaped similar to a shark dorsal fin?.... Only lower, looks neat to me?... I was really happy the 6" version worked with the standard Mauser spring! If I make another run of these, (maybe early next year!) probably about a dozen per year! They will all be 4" as I will get back to the philosophy of a standard Luger replacement barrel, but I will still offer a front sight option, as the Mauser blade give you the ability to cut the rear sight "V" into a square for a more modern sight picture, or use a standard "inverted V" as original.... I can't wait for the shooting results, I'm just not the guy for targets... I just like to hear the gun go off?...

... best to all, til...lat'r....GT

BTW, the machine marks come away with a small 220 W/D block sanding... Don is probably better than I in that department... but i'll bet it cleans up pretty! Til....lat'r.....GT......

BTW, Olle can cut the sight dovetail with amazing accuracy... right now, you have to take apporx. .005 out of one of the ends for a custom tight fit.... We planned it that way... the dovetail fit for the original Luger FS blade is perfect! And actually, my preference..... Again, Good Job Olle!!!!!!!!
