I've got a 91/30 Mosin-Nagant that shoots way high. I know that the easy fix is to slip a piece of wire insulation over the front sight post to make it taller, but I really like how narrow the front sight post is, so I'd like to explore something.... slimmer.
I recently read that the SVT40 had a front sight much like the 91/30 Mosin-Nagant, but was adjustable vertically. Would an SVT40 front sight fit on a 91/30 Mosin-Nagant? I'm wondering if that might be a slicker solution than hacking up, drilling and tapping a 91/30 front sight. Of course, I've never even held a SVT40 in my hands, much less held the 2 rifles side by side, so I don't know it they would interchange. Does anybody on here?
