I've literally seen hundreds of sights come through here now, and some are 0.325" tall -- the height that will get COM without the bayonet. Most are 0.295" tall, which I suspect is the height of your pins.
Some are around 0.100" tall, or slightly over. They would shoot high regardless.
Most wartime had the 0.295" sights. I cannot swear that the taller sights were not installed during the refurb process.
@Gungeek i believe 407ForRent was talking about the ad thats plays before this video . Nice shooting , i think next time i have my 91/30 at the range ill try shooting some groups with the bayonet on .
I just recrown the barrels on my refurbs & they stop shooting high. All the refurbs I`ve looked at have the lands & grooves visible @ the top of the crown , but smooth @ the bottom. One refurb shot about 1 ft pattern, about 15 in. high & 10 in. to the right, The rifling was more prominent , in the upper right area of the crown. I had the rifle recrowned. Group was 2 in. & 2 inch high @ 95 yrds, roughly dead on @ 100meters. I never moved the sights.
The trick is learning to hit something without the bayonet. At least now maybe the people who claim it makes no difference will see the light. I am in the process of uploading yet another video at the moment, tried some slow motion, but I am limited by my equipment. I saw a slow motion of a PSL once, and the barrel flex was amazing.
