Swedish Mauser Tall Front Sight Blade Blank 10.5mm (.413\") M94 M96 M38 Unissued For Sale

Proudly precision-machined and finished in Virginia, USA.

Swedish Mauser M94, M96, & M38 — True 10.5mm Overall Height (.413\") — Universal 2.0mm Target Profile — Blacked Finish — Unissued Condition

Up for sale is a premium, top-quality, custom-machined extra-tall front sight blade blank in unissued, pristine condition. This is a single, precision-crafted cross-platform solution that fits the native factory front sight bases of the M1894 Carbine, M1896 Long Rifle, and M1938 Short Rifle. If your vintage rifle is currently shooting way too high at standard civilian distances, this is the exact part you need to correct your target zero.

• Overall Height: 10.5mm / 0.413 inches (Measured accurately from the absolute bottom plane of the dovetail base to the top flat edge). This sits at an effective military deviation scale of +4.0—providing a half-millimeter of extra adjustment room beyond the tallest factory-issued military blades (+3.5 / 10.0mm).
• Universal Blade Width: 2.0mm exactly. This deliberate thickness splits the difference between the standard factory M96 width (2.2mm) and M38 width (1.7mm). It ensures a sharp, clean, high-visibility target sight picture across all models.
• Finish: Premium Black Oxide / Blued Steel finish (Classic dark military-style look—no raw white steel or immediate coating required).

Vintage Swedish military Mausers were calibrated from the factory for a minimum battle distance of 300 meters. Because of this, modern commercial ammunition or target handloads typically impact 8 to 12 inches too high when shooting at modern 100-yard civilian ranges.

At a substantial 10.5mm height, this is an intentional oversized \"gunsmith blank.\" Once drifted into your rifle\'s factory barrel slot, it will deliberately force the initial point of impact to be low. This leaves plenty of extra steel to carefully file down the top edge at the shooting range until your group perfectly zeroes dead-center at 100 yards with your specific bullet weight and preferred hold.

• M94 Carbine Collectors: Original M1894 carbines utilized a distinct, sharp \"inverted V\" front post profile. Because original V-blades are nearly impossible to find, this 2.0mm square-top blank provides the perfect, clean canvas to file down into a traditional factory point or use directly as a high-visibility square post.
• Installation Advice: The dovetail base is machined to match standard Swedish Mauser dimensions. However, due to historical manufacturing variances across different production years and factories (Carl Gustafs and Husqvarna), a brief pass with a small triangular file across the base sides may be required for a perfectly tuned drift fit.
