M1 carbine rear sight
I have a rear sight that is supposed to be for a M1 carbine. It has the windage knob in the middle and where it would be installed on the reciever is the same as the reciver. I would include apictures but can't figure out how to incert them. I can email them to anyone that can help. Thanks
the windage knob is on centered on the right side and the base requires a male dovetail to install it

I was cleaning out my parts box and came across a USGI M1 carbine rear sight assembly that is marked "HI". I have never seen this mark on an M1 carbine part. I have never been all that interested in the M1 carbine so that would explain the lack of knoledge in this field. Who would be the manufacturer of this part. Thanks in advance for any info.

Here is a site that will let you down load the Army manual for the M1 carbine repair and maintenance manual with pictures of the rear sight and receiver dove tail.

I don't think you have an M1 Carbine sight. All windage adjustment knobs have been on the right, not middle, and the 'same as the receiver' part is confusing. It's supposed to be the same, or it wouldn't fit into the receiver.
So, get back to us with the photos! Thanks, Joe
EDIT-Info Added
I noticed it hasn't been mentioned earlier..there are instructions for posting photos on the top of this forum. Good Luck! Joe0 -
