#5 rolling block military rifle Sight. This sight is the issue sight for the 1897 and 1902 models. It is not the correct sight for the 1910 model. The sight is nearly all white metal. The number stampings on both the base and the ladder are very sharp & crisp. The slider is tight and will hold any position on the ladder. The slider screw heads are clean and straight. There are a few small pits at the wood line on the rear corners of the sight base. There is another spot (3/16") of pitting at the wood line on the left front of the sight base.
