I was looking through the database and cannot find any maker for the R stamped front sight.  Anyone have any suggestions or comments?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think that's Redfield....

Thank you Wayne, I did not see Rudy listed in the reference page for front sight markings.  I will need to suck it up and buy a War Baby book.

Beezer, Not sure that info is even listed in WB. But great info about the N and the R marked front sights can be found in CCNL 251.
