Anschutz 335

Although if I had to hazard a guess, I'd say the 335 sight looks more like one off a Norica.

I will look further on that suggestion Geezer.
Do you have a reference model or image link?

I am having the dovetail defects welded.
When the completed rifle is blued, am not wanting the repairs to show up like the proverbial dogs .
Does anyone know the metal composition of the Anschutz receiver/air cylinder so the nearest correct wire can be used?
I have sent Anschutz an email but at this point there hasn't been a response from them.

What measurement do you require?

I just reread my post; that is a good question Mick

The centre height of the original front sight. Measured from the top or bottom of the barrel outer would do the trick.
Cheers.

An HW foresight can usually be adapted to a dovetail, either by machining it to make it wider or by shimming it with brass L section strip to narrow it in. The rear-sight on an Anschutz 335 is a lovely piece of work.

Probably not so useful for your predicament, but my Mk1 335 has a Williams style rearsight, with a target foresight containing a post. I could take measurements, but do not have it to hand tonight. Could possibly do it tomorrow?

Nice one tricky that should be ok.

The 335 S has a solid breach block with no provision for the rear sight if that helps Mr slow to determine model.

Real lovely, i have to agree and substantial too. Mine has the slide for elevation adjustment.

That will be OK Trick. I am waiting on the weld job so there is no real urgency on that.

Yes, thanks Mick. I have seen a couple of images of that variant on the Net
