	I recently bought a 1912 Mauser bolt action. (Karl Gustaf)
	Does anyone out there have any useful information about this 
piece as regards to the sighting ? It has a flip up sight with some 
fairly ambigous numbers on it, and a battle sight with equally ambiguous 
figures.  My first guess was metres, but the ranges that would yield are a
bit better than I expect. 
	Bought it at Woolworths for 78$, of all things. It's in great
shape, and the machining on the bolt brings water to my eyes...
