So, I found a Bubba'd 1917 in one of the local shops today and for a fair price I couldn't really resist plopping down the few bucks to put it on layaway (didn't have the full amount on me). I've been itching for one since I had to sell my old P-14.
Anywho, it doesn't look too bad at all. Good metal, original barrel (12-18), all the right proof marks. The thing that bubba did was to hack the stock and toss the handguards and whatnot. It looks like for the most part I can get the neccessary parts to put it back to original condition. However, the one big problem arises from the fact that I can't seem to figure out a place to find replacement rear sight guards/wings or if it's even a part that can be replaced.
I guess what it comes down to is that I'm asking the community's help in either finding out where to get this part/how to install it.
Cheers and thanks in advance for the help!
