Gunner Posted December 13, 2003 Report Share Posted December 13, 2003 I got an adjustable Lyman from International Military Antiques a couple of months ago. I think they also have the L's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grumpy Posted December 13, 2003 Report Share Posted December 13, 2003 Hi Wolfer, If you're looking for a adjustable rear Lyman Sight, contact IMA. They had them, item XU1060 for $295.00 plus shipping. The ones I got were almost brand new! The phone number is 908-903-1200. Web site is www.ima-usa.com. But the sights are not listed there, but you can get their e-mail address and check-out some other goodies! Hope this helps you. Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beechnut Posted December 13, 2003 Report Share Posted December 13, 2003 I paid big bucks for a Lyman sight earlier this year. Now after shooting with it, I'm a little disapointed. It does look good though. http://drf.lart.net/guns/WH/clean/125-2510_IMG_sm.jpg How'd Billy Crystal used to say it? "It's better to rook gewd, thahn to freel gewd" In tangent mode, I can't even see the notch. I actually aim better with the actuator handle. In aperture mode the ladder rides up (automagically increasing elevation for you) The old WH sight actually worked better. If I did it all over again, I'd get an L sight.

wolfer113 Posted December 13, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2003 LOL....to me there is no use for sights on a subgun....i can open eyed point shoot better than most people trying to use sights out to 100 yards...my personal opinion on sights on subguns is..either none at all or a ghost ring and theres always laser....only reason i want a lyman is to make my gun "correct" as they call it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SecondAmend Posted December 13, 2003 Report Share Posted December 13, 2003 Who needs a Lyman sight when you "spray and pray"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike45 Posted December 13, 2003 Report Share Posted December 13, 2003 The Kahr sights are not related to a Lyman,sort of like apples & oranges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bug Posted December 14, 2003 Report Share Posted December 14, 2003 Smoker21, try Joe Manazzi at www.keystonearms.com He had some factory springs a few years back and helped me out with my Savage 28. He is a good source for TSMG (and other) parts. He is also a nice, honest, very reliable gentleman. Email him, he will respond. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
