1895 Chilean Mauser

Anyone know where I can get a replacement rear sight for a 1895 Chilean Mauser? I'm missing the elevator slide but willing to replace the entire thing if I have to. Would prefer not to go through Ebay and when i do a search thats the only thing coming up.

Gunparts was Numrich Arms for eons. Haven't called themselves that for eons either.
Try these guys.

Gun shows.

Local shops.

Online shops.

And, that which you desire to avoid: eBay.

You may want to look at their logo.



By the way, their phone number? 866-NUMRICH.

I had the same thought earlier, but I let it slide, since it wasn't important to the discussion.

Numrich is also what's still printed on every invoice, and any repackaged part that they put a label on.

Website is Gun Parts Corp. Shipping labels say GPC. Everything else is still Numrich.

Liberty Tree Collectors might be able to help, perhaps

Take a look here:

At the moment they seem to have a rear sight base in stock, anyway.
