What kind of front sight is this?
Sure looks like it's on backwards to me.

It's a Marbles "Sheard" Gold bead sight, and it is on backward!

Re: Front Sight Question...
The sight is right, the rifle is backwards. 
Looks like a nice old 25-35, but, I wonder what the box of 30-30's is doing there.----------6

LOL I guess the box of shells is fitting with a backwards sighted rifle.Sixgun wrote:The sight is right, the rifle is backwards.

It is backwards, but I'll bet that old rifle still shot just fine for the owner. The things you see, though, on some peoples' guns. It always amazes me.
