Is there a chart someplace that spells out the various size fron sight inserts that different front globes take? I have anschutz sights that are different from another anschutz and 2 different FWB sizes (neither fit either anschutz. Also have a Walther on the way and have no idea what size I need for it???
Any help appreciated.. Or should I just modify all of them for Lyman fronts and forget it :o)?
Thanks,
Greg

All Anschutz factory foresights should take 18mm elements.
Newer Feinwerkbaus (I think anything with a metal stock) will take 22mm elements.
Older fienwerkbaus and Older Walthers take 16mm elements.
I think the Walther KK300 and LG300 take 18mm elements. Older Walthers use 16mm elements. I don't know when the changeover was made.

The early (1955) Anschutz 54 I have has the orig front sight & band and has 15.7 mm insert. It won't interchange with the early FWB 16mms either??
