WW2 US M15 Grenade Sight


Recommended Posts

US M15 Grenade Sight, this was introduced in 1944, and was intended for use on all US rifles. Since it was introduced so late, odds are most were not used during the conflict. Therse have been resurfacing lately as I have seen several casers here and there selling these off. I used to have several of these awhile back. So, I picked another up, all parts still wrapped up.

Here is an image from the internet showing how the sight mounted to a M1 Carbine.

 I still have my dads from WW II.  A dime a dozen in the U.S.  Easy find at flee markets and gun shows.  The one unissued is a nice display item that few collect.

Nice, my M1 Garand is an early model with the single slot gas key, I do have a 4-way I can insert to use for the grenade launcher.
