In our efforts to document as many historical small arms as possible we realized that one of the first things anyone does with a newly encountered firearm is look down the sights.  However, this view is so often omitted from any documentation of a firearm.  We set out to correct this.

We’ve changed cameras three times and methods nearly a dozen, so some images are better than others.  Good or bad, the C&Rsenal POV gallery now boasts over 100 sight pictures.  Here are some of our favorites.
