Redfield and Buffalo Nickel changes have been made to "Gunsmithing"

Redfield sight came in today, and installed without a hitch. Instructions in the "Gunsmithing" section. No wood needed to be removed, and the sight didn't need to be reshaped. I also bought some 6-48 receiver plug screws from castbullet.com, and they fit perfectly. I bought the "positive stop" version (about $2 each) and they fit nice and flush.

I did a crude boresighting with a speck of light that was coming in through a crack in my front door. Can't wait to get the rifle out to the range, and see how it fires! If it's anything like the M54s I've shot before, it should be a tack driver, which is a lot to say for a 75 year old rifle.

I'll be filling in the rear sight dovetail with a filed-down Buffalo nickel ($1 on ebay.) Pictures, etc, to come when the nickel arrives in the mail.
