Re: If you don't have a 4x4, chains, or studded tires...UPDA

Simple, should fire decent out of just about anything.

handle,bent it and welded it up. Then cleaned her up and polished it to look factory.

OI, I bought that front sight mount and had two problems with it. First was the ring is held in place with a set screw. Second is the dove tail the original sight goes in is not a dovetail.
It kind of just wedges in there. If you want the one I have to try Ill send it to you.PM me if you want it.
