Re: USMS 1903 springfield sights
Better, I have great far away eye sight but wear Bi-Focal glasses to read, that means seeing the front sight post clearly can be a challenge. A friend found an eye doctor who is a shooter and flipped his prescription so the close up lenses are at the top for shooting. I have worn reading glasses off the shelf type and that helps too. My story is similar to yours, my USMC 03 I inherited from my uncle, a WW2 USMC vet, he claimed it was 7 numbers off the one he carried on Bougenville, said he almost shit himself when he got it so was so close in numbers. it had the original cut down "C" stock so I replaced it with one from CMP. I'm very happy with it and was planing on shooting it at Camp Perry this year but have a new job and no vacation so maybe next year.
