Alex Martin is well known as a sporting gun maker out of Glasgow, particularly notable for finishing his guns with Scottish motifs. Additionally, Martin is known to have built a number of fine match rifles, and these sights likely belonged to one of those. Rear sight is Vernier style rear sight, adjustable for both windage and elevation, front sight is an adjustable globe with level and side prongs, designed to clamp directly to the barrel. Front sight serial numbered 9798, rear sight marked "ALEX MARTIN / GLASGOW". CONDITION: Very good, retaining the vast majority of the bluing with some normal age spotting and marks from handling that do not detract. Front sight still has visible high polish English blue. A wonderful set of sights and unmissable if you own Alex Martin number 9798. EMW
