Anschutz Match 54 vs 1913 Sight Rails?

[barrow_matt]

When I look on some of the target shooting websites I see that some categorise sight fittings into 2 categories for Anschutz Rifles, < 1913, 1913+.

Please could someone explain the difference?

I have a Match 54 Action and would like to add a sight raiser/extender like this:

The foresight dovetail is a different size. The Match 54/18 series and earlier has a block that is screwed to the barrel. The 19 series and later has dovetail grooves machined onto the barrel. The item you are looking at will not fit a Match 54 action, but this one will:

1913 accessories will fit the 1813 dovetail but you have to raise the rearsight by approx 4mm.

Centra do a rear extender piece as well.
