Default Re: Remington 341 - A Classic Old Rifle

There were actually 4 different inserts. They're all metal so the yellow plastic one wasn't original. They were a small post, large post, small lollipop, and a large lollipop.

I have 2 of the styles, a large lollipop and a small post. The large post was twice as wide as the small post. The small lollipop had a hole half the diameter as the large lollipop. Here's a few pics and dimensions if you care to try to recreate them.

Post dimensions
(1) 0.435"
(2) 0.365"
(3) 0.035"
(4) 0.054"
(5) 0.186"
(6) 0.122"
(7) 0.120"
(8) 0.100"
(9) 0.170"

(1) 0.435"
(2) 0.356"
(3) 0.035"
(4) 0.090"
(5) 0.105"
(6) 0.060"
(7) 0.120"
(8) 0.100"
(9) 0.170"
(10) 0.225"
(11) 0.330"

The (9) dimension is from the very bottom of the sight to the bottom of the tabs. This is very crucial to the fit in the slot of the front sight.

The inserts were between 0.025" and 0.026" thick and are not flat. The tabs are bent a bit to make them fit into the slot of the front sight and not fall out.

I have a 41-p and a 341-p. I've actually got quite a few of the old Remmy rimfires.

Here's a pic of my 341-p.
