    Sniper scopes

    So anyone still repairing/restoring original scopes? Peter Laidlericon did one for me years ago. Is he still doing that? Anyone stateside perhaps? Also are any of the mounts that were made for the MOD still available? Anyone doing those repros?

    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.

    Mike at Iron Site just did my ART II refurb. I don't know if he works on Enfield scopes however. Will have to call and speak to Rachel at the shop.

    I am still doing the No.32 scopes, but booked solid for the next month or so.
    It would be the end of October before I could even look at one.
    Also doing some ZF 41's and few models of WW 2 US scopes, but I am just a one horse show.
    I still have a good supply of No.32 parts including lenses and also new objective (front) lenses for the REL TOS.
    PM me if anything can do for you.

    Can anyone identify this mount? I know is a replica, but not sure of make. The seller told me he wasn't sure where from. Serviceable?
