    Open sights for the R 1

    in R1 Rifle

    Posted

    Good news I was contacted by MIDWESTGUNWORKS.COM who was previously out of stock and now apparently has some , I was able to order the set. Not sure if they have several or just the one. For anyone who has wanted a set I would sure jump on this it's been a bearcat to find them anywhere. thanks

    Thanks for the idea sent several of them E mails and all were very nice but said no they don't make one for the R 1 , I may have to try and find a good barrel gun smith who has done some custom sight work. Does anyone have a recomendation ? I have found a couple company's that appear to have that level of expertise

    Folks I'm new to the forum so hope this message is posted correctly if not my apologies.I recently purchased R 1 in 30.06 saw a lot of comments over the past that it was really difficult to find 10 rd. mags and the open sights.I had called Benelli a couple of times and was assured both were available and if not they would soon be. I have found the mags which seem to be forever on back order but at a high price ( $ 110. Ea.) After much searching I can not locate the Benelli sights anywhere the few sources are all out of stock. every time I have contacted customer service over the past several weeks I do not get much encouragement that I will ever be able to get them.I was told November then December and most recently maybe not until Febuary. I guess they are a hot item even at $ 225.00 . Does anyone know of how to find one ( as stated my Internet search has been zero) is there someone who makes a non Benelli sight that I can install and would work just as well (using the existing thread mounting holes) Any thoughts would be much appreciated. I own 4 Benelli shotguns got the first one over 20 years ago and love -em. This is my first less than positive experience. Thanks
