NEW RIFLE SIGHTS. 



The Kind They Have Been Looking For. 



Front and Rear Sights are patented to F.W. Freund. 



A production of years of patient and thorough 

 study in the field and shop. This sight has met 

 with great success East and West. It shows what 

 perfection has been attained in open sights for 

 hunting, eporting and target rifles. They give ex- 

 cellent satisfaction when used under unfavorable 

 conditions of light or defective sight, and are, on 

 account of their fine workmanship, an ornament to 

 any rifle. Send stamp for illustrated circular; write 

 your name plainly. Address

Elkhart 111., Feb. 13, 1884. 



J. C. Petmecky: 



Dear Sir— I have used your cleaner and find it 

 one of the best I ever used, and I think it will take 

 the place of all other cleaners. 



Caft. A. H. Bogardus. 



Gainsville, Ark., May 5. 1884. 



Mr. J. C. Petmecky: 



Dear Sir— I have just received the two gun clean- 

 ers, and I admire them very much. They are the 

 best thing I have ever seen. I have tried almost 

 everything imaginable, but this simple invention 

 after using it has become indispensable with me. 

 For removing lead on the interior of gun barrels I 

 am quite certain its equal has not yet been pro- 

 duced. Most truly yours, 



Capt. E. E. Stubbs. 



Austin, Tex., March 31, 1885. 

 Mr. J. C. Petmecky, Austin, Tex.; 



Dear Sir— At my recent shoot in your city it 

 afforded me pleasure to speak of the merits of your 

 late invention, the "Petmecky Gun Cleaner." After 

 trying all others I find it the best, and cheerfully 

 recommend it to all sportsmen. I remain, yours 

 truly, Dr. W. J. Carver,
