Front Sight Adjustment tool for Ishapore Enfield 2A1

**concretus** · 03-19-2012 08:35 PM

Helllo,
I have a 1966 Ishapore 2A1 and I think it's a nice piece. Is there a front sight adjustment tool for it other than a hammer and drift punch? Thanks

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

Yes, there are a couple. Originally made to suit the .303 SMLE Mk 3, they can be used on the 2A1. There is the original style (got mine from Numrich) and also a simpler modern repro (got from ebay).

All consist of a slotted block which slides over the foresight assembly from the front, and a pair of threaded bars which come in from each side to allow you to move the foresight blade element across in a controlled fashion. You normally have to remove the nosecap to do the foresight adjustment..
