    The peep sight on the Ross rifle is in a weird spot.

    I’ve been playing lots of Fallout New Vegas, so iron sights make me want to act up

      They are usable left handed. There is no issue at all with looking down the sights. The bolt action is slightly more awkward to operate quickly, but not insurmountable.

      The M1 carbine, is like the M1 Garand also semi-auto, making it equal in regard follow-up shot speed. (Actually probably functionally faster because it is more controllable).

      The No. 4 series seemed to start with a peep to ladder sight like this:

    Mauser 98? Is it because it is far from forgotten?

      The Mauser is on the chart.
