ES340B rear sight

Might be a stupid question, but is the rear sight on the Mauser ES340B the same as those that are to be seen on the DSM34 ?
 
Here is the rear sight on my es340b - very close but yet some differences

Thank you for answering me, Papahound.

So, if I got it right, a DSM34 rear sight leaf wouldn't fit on an ES340B rear sight base ?
 
Hi Deejay
There is a forum called rimfirecentral - they have a thread specifically just for Mauser rifles . I am not by any means a expert - but they're are some guys there with great knowledge on the subject of Mauser .22 rifles . I own a few and think they are great - I even purchased the book by Jon Speed on Mauser .

Hopefully they can answer your questions there - but I personally don't think that the sight leafs are interchangeable :

Good luck and best regards !
 
Thanks a lot, Papahound :thumbsup:

I ordered a Williams WGRS-54 receiver peep sight yesterday, so I suppose I won't need a sight leaf after all as the primary reason why it was suppressed was to install a peep sight on the rifle. The next step for me will be to determine the type of peep sight which was originally used here... and to find one !

Such a pity Jon Speed's book is so very exprensive ! :googlie
 
Thanks, Bob !
I eventually ordered the book from a French on-line bookshop (Librairie Le Hussard) - cost me 95 € (approximately $106), postage included.
