Most rear sights lean towards the shooter and often have horizontal grooves in them, both to use shadow to advantage to provide a cleaner sight picture. Express sights seem to lean towards the muzzle, and would seem to reflect glare. Any idea about that? History. Unrealized advantage to the design. Only thing I can think of is that it is less snaggy.
 
I was of the impression that the forward angle promoted subconscious visibility towards the front sight, and a natural focus on the target/aimpoint.

Hi Dr. Ray, I will be in Cooktown from Oct 16 to Oct 23 fishing Lizard Island Black Marlin Tournament.

I have several "slack" days after fishing before I head for stay in Sydney and Fiji.

Do you have any recommendations for 1 or 2 day hunt near Cooktown?

I've hunted both DG and PG in 4 different countries in Africa.
Thank you,
Bob

Good morning. I see that you had a Sauer 202 for sale for $3,000. Did you sell it at that price?
I have one for sale as well. I listed it (on here ) at $3,000 as well. Is the price high, low or right where it should be?

Thanks. Alex. [redacted] in case you want to call me to discuss further. I appreciate your time help and support.

Dave, I could use both of them if still available. I just picked up a new .22 mag and a .22 pump that they would be perfect on.
