Jim Leatherwood (autosight or ART inventor) fascinated by the retro sight and wanted to provide as much time as possible for a unit. It took him about 14 years to study the range of the first modern William Malcolm steel pipe that came out of his 3/4 inch diameter pipe. In 2006, Leatherwood produced a large 18-inch long pipe, pipe range (extended sunshade allows a variety of rifles installed in a variety of rifles). In the mirror mirror room marked "Wm Malcolm" lens, is produced in China's Leatherwood factory. By the members of the Leatherwood family (Jim Leatherwood died in 2007), the facility has high quality control standards, all components are made by the internal. In 2008, the introduction of 6X, is now the company's most popular range.
William Malcolm is one of the names of American soldiers, opened in Syracuse in Nigeria in 1855, with a length of 24 to 30 inches of 1 / 2- and 3/4 inch diameter tubing Rifle mirror According to Nick Strobel in the "old rifle sight" in the description, they initially to 2 times to 20 times the magnification, but eventually the final 14 to 30 inches in length and 4 times to 8 times the magnification. On their day, the scope of Malcolm is considered the best of the American frame, and they are expensive. In 1910, the simple Malcolm "Rude Rider" 3X was priced at $ 14, and the "A" was just an octagonal Winchester single shooter (1885 high wall) with only 2 ounces of shotguns The In addition to the range, Malcolm was "the inventor of the famous spiral movement, also the telescope of the spiral air meter movement. William Malcolm (William Malcolm) died in 1890, but the company has been maintained until 1940, The other US ranges are more than Malcolm. Like the market for the development of firearms, there is also a need for a range of replication.Although it is difficult to improve in a single combat force or on a wall in 1885, the lens coating, the nitrogen filling tube and Other improvements in progress can be incorporated into the copy barrel without having to change the outside line. Look at the 19th century original rifle and then return to a cheap modern range, and literally a different world.
Although it appears that the oscilloscope is filled with nitrogen, there are six lenses inside, all in the air surface are completely coated. Leatherwood's patented coating reported 96.7% transmittance. In modern rifles, usually springs or springs are pressed against the riser opposite the adjustment turret. Rotate the dial, will increase or decrease the tension, move the mask. Obviously, Malcolm did not adjust the turret range, so as in the past, the function is carried.
The exterior range is installed, but you know that unlike the modern range of adjustment work, they take some habits. In practice, they are a bit like iron attractions, and you move the range of the rearward direction in the opposite direction to move the group.
In front of the mount is fixed, but in the back, this unit was produced by Lyman in the past, later known as Leatherwood "rabbit ear seat". The front seat is fixed and I add a recoil fixture to the front ring to prevent recoil movement. Only the rear ring has the adjustment of the rules, unlike the traditional rifle mirror, you can see the tube move. No click, each dial has a locking ring, must be released to adjust. A spring at five o'clock is pressed up on the pipe. The windshield and lift screws push the tube toward the spring, and you can actually move the tube into the interior of the mount, but the spring tension returns it to zero.
My range comes from MidwayUSA and costs $ 299 for her own range, but there are an additional $ 170 for rings, cradles and lock fixtures.
