    Why would you want a modern rifle like this? Just get an old one.

      BUIS and/or not needing to immediately double to cost of the rifle with an optic just to be able to shoot it straight
      unless they're tall enough to interfere with scope mounting, why *wouldn't* you want them?

        Because I'm not poor and can afford a quality optic

          Okay, but a large majority of gun owners can't justify dropping 3k on an optic, and 1k on a bolt action.

    Just mount your own
    And they better be aperture sights or youre a gay
    What’s nice is you can shoot out to a thousand yards with good irons, and you can spend thousands on some really nice iron sights

    I guess I'll ask it here. The first gun I ever shot was one of my grandpa's .22 lrs it was bolt action and fed by clips it held 10 rounds and there was no removable magazine it had irons when he went senile my grandma sold them all off for vacation money does anyone know the model I may be talking about because I've wanted to get one for years

      It was fed by clips and a 22lr bolt action? I’ve never heard of such a thing, and if that’s actually what it is then it should be easier for you to track down

        That's the worst part of I've been looking for years and if I saw it I'd know it but there's nothing online that matches my description he's 102 though so maybe it was some weird thing that wasn't produced a whole bunch

      BSA Sportsman 10? It doesn't take clips though.

    Can't any rifle with a mauser action and a free floating barrel be fitted into a wooden stock?

    And given that lazer bore sights exist, what's so hard about welding a front post onto a rifle, hexing an adjustable rear sight onto a rifle, using the rear sight to basically file the front post into position then using the fixed front post to set the rear side to a variable zero rather than just a fixed zero? Basically you would flip the rear sight to 500, discover it was out of alignment, then angle the whole sight block until the zero held at both 0 and 500. Then just weld it in with the hex still attached.

    A lot of bolt actions only had two or three rear sight positions given their limited engagement range.

      That sounds like a lot of work that you'd have to pay a skilled human to do instead of omitting the irons on the (reasonable) assumption that the buyer is just going to stick a scope on it anyway.

    Mossberg MVP Scout/Patrol come with iron sights. Front fiber optic.

    They have ones chambered in .308, 5.56, and .300blackout. I got my MVP Patrol in .308 for $550 used. It also takes AR10 mags and not some proprietary bullshit.
