I found a nice complete Mark 1*** CR matching numbers only at some point in time, someone removed the slide with the bone studs. Have an otherwise complete rear sight and another sight to copy, I decided to make a slide with the studs. With some milling and a lot of file work I was able to make the slide, I used pine wood for the studs, inside coil springs are chrome which the originals are not. Since this photo,
have reduced the sharp checkering on the studs |
