    Info on No8 Rear Adjustable Site

    Hi All,

    I have a Fazakerley No8 rifle which is fitted with what appears to be a trail sight.

    This site can be seen on page 297 of the Lee Enfield Book, in the section discussing the 2 possible variants of No8 Rifles.

    Unfortunately, the windage adjusting screw on mine was broken when i got the rifle. I wish to get another one made to restore the sight to a functioning condition.

    Would anyone happen to have a similar sight? if you do, are you able to send me some pictures and dimensions of the windage adjusting screw?

    I know it will be impossible to find any further information on them. Some say very few were made.

    Any help would be awesome.

    Regards,

    PJ

    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. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...
