I am building a space gun for highpower on a A-4 flat-top. I have seen several rear sights in the $250 to $300 range and am not sure which one to buy. Any help and experiences would be helpful. Any for sale?

He is shooting highpower and asking about iron sights.  Highpower is NOT 3 gun nor even similar.  I am not a highpower shooter so I cant help but please dont tell the guy to use somethng he cant use for his intended purposes.

RPA, or if you can find one, Redfield. They both have excellent reputations in the HP community.

Please excuse my ignorance, but what is a space gun?  I'm pretty sure you don't write your name on the moon with it, but that's really all that comes to my little mind.

They are intended to shoot like a laser....


here's a good page where you can get a picture of what they generally look like plus it links to builders of other high power guns.

Builders like Sierra Precision Rifles, Fulton, and then the other custom builders like Hollinger or Compass Lake.

Spaceguns ar used in NRA sponsered Match Rifle Competition,as opposed to Service Rifle being a
rifle that was issued to armed services army ,navy,air force,coast guard ,MARINES.
M1 Garand,M14/M1A1,M16/AR15,
The space gun is a highly tricked out rifle,like the Tubb 2000.

Space gun [match rifle] Colt Hbar lower, Jewel trigger, 24" SS Rock River Heavy barrel, A-4 upper, with Redfield Palma rear sights, large
olympic front sight. Weighs about 20 lbs. Excellent shooter, needs someone to pull the trigger with more consitant results than I am able to do. I was able to keep 1" MOA at 600 yds [sometimes] sometimes less with 80gr nosler
and 25 gr of Varget. Sometimes the wind had things to say about group size.

This is what I mean By Space gun.
