I'm still getting the hang of this whole RBRD thing and need a little help identifying these two sight bases.
Pic #1 shows that they seem to be both cast but 2 has been made smooth on the front and back. Pic #2 shows that 2 is stamped F but no marks on 1 Pic #3 shows that 1 has a rounded post and 2 has the newer square post and it also shows how it was radiused and made smooth. I'm throwing this out to you guys because I cant exactly figure out what I have here? If it helps any both sling loops are rubberized. Thanks for the help.

Quoted:
The tip off for a cast base is the "up" marking. A cast base has raised lettering, a forged has stamped. I've made some forged bases look very close to cast, but I can't add the raised lettering; if anybody has any bright ideas I'd like to hear them. That is a very helpful tip, thank you! |
