Hi,
Please indulge me, I have three more new-guy questions:
1) I have a front site that requires the use of a quarter to change it. Is the newer sight with the hex-key and phillips screw-head any better? Can the older style site be easily replaced with a new one?
2) Which direction doe's a USGI 30-round mag go into the buttstock - with the follower towards the grip or facing back towards the heel? I'm placing it facing forward but, what do you think?
3) From what I can glean from the other threads there was a batch of SU-16 rifles made that had no letter prefix before the serial numbers; and then the 'main production' (?) started with the letter "N" before the numbers. Is that correct? The reason I ask is that I have a low serial number with "N" prefix and am wondering which model bolt and firing pin it's got.
Thank you again!
Sincerely,
Joe
