rear sight for my .243 pistol barrel.
« on: March 29, 2011, 11:33:06 AM »
Does anyone know anyone that has an extra rear sight or where to get one and how much they cost? I was wanting to put one on my .243. It has the front sight but no rear(bought it that way).
Thanks,
Chris Kiefner

If folks want to give the poster your sight you can post it here.  If you want to sell him one then do it with a PM.  The OP is an inquiry, not a want to buy classified, and I will remove the thread if it turns into one.

While inquiring about purchasing a rear sight from someone here? I found that the rear sight height depended on the height of the front sight . Meaning, TC made different height front and rear sights and it was proving difficult to find the correct one,used.
So, I just contacted TC by telephone and asked to buy one.  They were very helpfull, the rear sight wasnt expensive at all. I think It was only like $25 at the most, few dollars for shipping and within a week I had the new correct sight in my hand.
Hope this helps?

It should, I was hoping it wasn't one of those things were it was going to cost $100 for. I didn't know if they put the same rear sight on the pistols as they do with the rifle barrels. I will try and contact someone on my day off. Might be hard to get parts right now though with them going through the change of ownership but I could be wrong about that.
