I bought a bunch of parts a while back from estate sale.
There were a couple of rear sights in the bunch.
Who manufactured this one?
I didn’t see any other markings

Would this be Winchester?

Found it. Wilco electric.

As you noted that was made by Wilco Electric. It's also a post war T105E1 sight, which Winchester never made. A WW2 Winchester sight will have open arrow heads and not closed ones as pictured.

Thanks. Great info. The fellow who owned them passed away. I think he was a big M1A guy. He had stocks, gunsmithing tools still in the Brownells boxes. Lots of parts.
I couldn’t help myself.
