All this talk of RPA reminded me that I have an as new RPA Tracker rear sight sitting in a box doing nothing. I really should try and find it a new home. Anyone know what it would be worth to a forum member?
What do they go for new? I've always fancied trying a set of irons on my RPA.......

£240 + VAT at HPS. Parts could be the problem. I had to have 2 sets repaired last year, one of which I'd borrowed as a backup, and the parts were pricey enough already.

Ouch!
Has anyone noticed the price of PH sights for a No4 recently? They are starting to get silly as well.

Worth the long trip anyway.. I think I have not missed one since the frst in the mid seventies...This was a smmall friendly met at the time... has quite grown since.
I prefer it to the Shot Show although....
BTW, if one of you attending see a big old man with a white stick, just say 'Hello Robert, Iam....' Many chances it will be R.G.C......
