Default Winchester p14

While browsing classifieds as I usually do to torture myself, I came across this bad boy. The price was good and I couldn’t resist so, here we are.

It’s a Winchester pattern 1914 chambered in .303 British. I’ll throw the stamps on here and let the pro tell you about it (you know who you are).

Those are “volley sights”. Instead of me trying to explain it, check out this 5min video....

Very cool gun . If it could only talk and tell its tale I'm sure we would listen for hours. So the little nub on the volley sight distance dial served as the front sight? Depending on the distance you dialed it in for you used the flip up rear and that nub to 'lob' rounds in? I don't see any adjustment on the rear volley sight so I'm guessing that?
