After waiting for many, many months I finally received the new sights for my Mosin Nagant M39.
Had some problems removing the tiny screws from the original open rear sight, but a little heat and the correct screw driver did the trick.
The only difference between the old and new front sight is that the new one is thinner.
What an improvement.
I even don't have to wear my glasses when using these sights.
Some pictures.

....may I ask where you aquired these from???...I've got an M-39 I absolutely love but it hits 12" (.3 meters?) high 
...front site is stamped "7" 
...I like the idea of the thinner front site and the peep in the rear...
