A relative trusted me with a M 44 in hopes I could get sights on the rifle. When I received it had a front sight and a filler blank where the rear sight would be. The rifle was set up for a scope which it does not have, when I received it had the front sight and two weaver style scope mounts one at the rear of the receiver and one at the chamber end of the barrel.
So I ordered a rear sight from Numrich for a M 44 that did not work even adjusted to the lowest POI the gun shot 9" high at 25 yds.
What's odd about this rifle is it has a Monte Carlo stock that because of the cheek weld doesn't let your head get low enough to get a sight picture.
So I tried the Tech Sights TSR 200, I was able to sight the gun in I three shots. The fourth round broke the front sight and hit me in the head, at first I thought it was a shell casing. I contacted Tech Sight and they sent a new front sight that one failed in the same manner as the first.
Looking for other options, I need sight height about 1 1/4" above the bore axis.
Thanks.
