Thanks, A nice sight. I've seen a few Marble-Goss but not many Goos sights. I don't even know who Goss was.
Good idea we could start a sight thread, there are hundreds that never made it to production.

Those Goss sights arelisted in pr4war Stoegers for 1903, Win 54 and 70, andKrag. have one on an 03, one for a 54 in the sight box, and have been looking for a Kreg sight forever. I had a 70 sight and sold it because the safety was rottn. They are otherwisean excellentsight and can be marked Goss or Marble Goss ' at least the 03 sights canbecause I hafveseen themboth way. Many years ago I cut my nose on an 03 Goss sight, the Ace trigger shoe fell off during a string of rapid fire in a match, I was all scrunched up shooting prone stuffing in clips and the change in the trigger totally discombobulated me

Having one of those sights in the sight box for a M54 would be impetus enough for me to go out looking for a M54 to put it on!

I have a 54 with a less-than-marvelous Marble rear receiver sight. Would the Goss be an upgrade?

Waterman, the Marble Goss is surely the best sight you can put on a 54, but I can't gat to it, whold apardtment is being rebujilt and I am in Mexico. Steev, I looked in the midrror, no scar on my nose any more- was probably sixty yeaars ago. Just for info, Joe Goss wasa a amllbore guy and the sightsd, for 52s, show up frequently on ebay.

My impressiono is that Joe Goss sold his business to Marble's. HavW had two of the 03 bolt sleeve sioghts one marked Goss the pther mARBLE-gOSS EXCEpt for markings they were identical cut my nose on the MG and still have it. Tho the NM rifle is long gone i REMEMBERit was on it second startgage barrel those were the days.
