I was perusing GunBroker looking at items I cannot afford, but would like to have one day.
I came across this: S&W New Model 3 American, 38-44 cal
http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=307588622 I thought the rear sight was particularly interesting.
I looked through my SMITH & WESSON AMERICAN MODEL book by Mr. Charles W. Pate and I didn't see a reference to this style of latch/rear sight.
Pics:

It appears to me to be a NON-adjustable rear sight on the latch, with the other "normal" rear sight in front of it.
Has anyone seen anything like this before?
Does anyone know where I can buy a S&W New Model rear sight / latch like this? but not for $1500! Just asking...!
