    Weirauch diopter sight

    Hi all,
    Does anyone know where I can buy a Weihrauch diopter sight,
    I've searched the ol' interweb but to no avail.
    Or has anyone got one for sale?

    Help.

    You can get a new one here: http://www.sportwaffen-schneider.de/...roducts_id/635

    They also sell the front sight insert pack.

    Keep an eye out on the bay, I got one from there recently, and they do pop up...search for both diopter and aperture ...and target sight come to that as sellers do not always describe things as you would

    Thanks mate but I don't think that's an original.
    I think the Weihrauch one had a knurled knob on the front that screwed a pin into one the holes on top of the trigger block.

    I maybe wrong tho..I think it might have happened once

    Thanks.

    If the one for sale is the one pictured then you are right, it's not a Weihrauch original.

    As Eddie says, they do come up on the Bay, and they also come up regularly on eGun.de, the German auction site. You should be able to pick one up there for under £30 delivered to the UK if you're patient.

    I think it is 'genuine' HW, but as you say - not the older type like this?: http://i942.photobucket.com/albums/a...s/IMG_1186.jpg
