    Lyman Alaskan Scope

    I have a Lyman Alaskan 2 1/2 X scope with fine cross hairs & a target dot that I took off an 03 A4 clone I purchased here in Canadaicon & have since used an M84 scope in its place. Talking to a dealer a couple of days ago & he mentioned that it may be off an Enfield sniper rifle. Beside the word Alaskan on the side of the body is the number: 6721 & on the turret another number 7634***. Is there any truth to this & if so, do these given numbers put it on an Enfield? And which one? Thanks for any help...

    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.

    It's definitely not Enfield or it wold have a post-type reticle, not crosshairs and target dot.

    Thanks for the info. I figured it was a commercial version but just wanted confirmation. I'll keep it just the same for another future project.
