Anschutzfan Posted 9 September 2015 Share Posted 9 September 2015 Sorry if this sounds vague but i'm looking for what i think is an old piece of kit, one of the wedge / ramp clamps for a foresight - (to fit an Anschutz 1413) that allows you to raise or lower the foresight to change distances easily. Hope that makes sense. Thanks and regards Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tim s Posted 9 September 2015 Share Posted 9 September 2015 Do you mean a two-step base? I bought mine from the NSRA shop a few years ago, cost was about a tenner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anschutzfan Posted 9 September 2015 Author Share Posted 9 September 2015 Hi, no its not a two step, its a ramp and you can slide the sight up and down and lock it off at any point. I saw it in Fuller's Small-Bore Target Shooting book. i will try to find a photo of one and post it here. Thanks and regards Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tim s Posted 10 September 2015 Share Posted 10 September 2015 Oh that one. That was a proprietary design made by Barnett for their short lived smallbore rifle. I don't know if it was sold commercially as an accessory, and doubt it's been made since the 1940s. Anyway it took a special foresight (likely needing the small 9/16in Parker-Hale elements) with an angled base; your Anschutz 1413 won't fit without a custom made adaptor.Gehmann do make a sliding raiser block set, but I think these may be only for 1913 barrels/foresights with the shallow dovetail, rather than the deeper dovetail of the 1413. If you want quick distance changes, a stepped foresight base or flip-over foresight tunnel would be much easier to find. Huey 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
