Still working my way through the collection of gun related items left to me when my old Dad passed. I must have looked at his gear at least once a week for many, many, many years but still surprised by some of the things turning up.

Now we know what happened to all those missing sights on the old German rifles  Wink
Nice assortment.  If one were able to determine what came from where, it would likely be helpful to many collectors of those fine firearms.
Thanks for posting!
Mike.

Great collection, makes us shooters of German rifles drool. I’m surprised there are no Buchel offset sights.

They clamp to the integral rib on top of the barrel.

Swiss martini sights mounted on long dovetail as mentioned.
  

If I hear another  millenial use the term "node" or "optimal " at the range I'll scream!!!
