    Try Millers Gun Parts, on eBay. He makes reproduction Redfield 40X/700 rear bases. Not sure about front bases though.

    Any gunsmith who installs barrels also knows how to drill/tap for sight bases. They just need to know the correct spacing dimensions. Those dimensions are dependent on which version of bases you choose. The last gunsmith I used was Greg Tannel of Gre-Tan Rifles, but he is not currently accepting...

    The original first issue sight bases were manufactured by Redfield, but they are long out of business. You can search for take-off parts on gunboards. But they are literally worth their weight in gold, meaning if you weighed the 2 bases, the sale prices are equivalent to what 14K gold sells for...

    No telling what's been discovered inside the custom shop since first article testing & production from October 1987. Have heard rumors PTG will be releasing a large lot of inventory soon. Get your checkbook ready. The DARPA titanium receivers just became available.

    I screenshot your ebay auction and saw its engraved for the M24. Nice! Can you give the nsn #'s for both ema and ard. Trying to figure out the timeframe both became available. The June 2003 update TM shows your EMA with the white alignment marking at the front. But theres no mention of the...

    This took me awhile to figure out. Apparently Bausch & Lomb/Bushnell started to include the LIF in their spotting scope lines Elite and Tactical. They also integrated the M22 Binocular killFlash Tenebraex ARD instead of the threaded-on unit. I also have a Rock Island Arsenal contract dated 2002...

    Taking pics of this spotter to sell online. Then saw what appeared to be the green hue of a laser protection filter on the front objective lens. I've owned it for over 10 years. Its a Bausch & Lomb Elite 15~45X60 that was advertised as a Litton M144. I assumed it was just a standard B&L model...

    Have to assume these spec sheets came from that $35,000 special machine that measured trigger pull/retention within 1/10th of 1 ounce in the Illion custom shop? Would be interesting to know where its at now after the reorganization? The parts you have are outstanding

    I figured you owned one Bmx. Does your lever rotate past "DAY" at 3 o'clock? Mine hits a detent at Day, but it can go to about 4o'clock. I unscrewed the lever, and it only has one position with no adjustability.

    Thats the basics of AN/PVS-10 SNS. In its day these were advanced technology. Built tough enough to handle .50bmg recoil. Then clip-ons took over with their full length real estate top rails & side mounts. Now its going thermal, and color thermal w/GPS & laser targeting. Got this rig from a...
