Nice bit of kit, possibly out of my price range, but while looking at a No4 T (see link below) it was the serial number that rang a few bells, its 525 rifles older.

You're right Brian. I was wondering what he meant at the start. What is a brand new IWS, in the correct box worth in the US Brian?
Before you ask, the correct box/chest for the IWS should be the larger dark green box that caters for the Auto Brightness Control (the ABC unit). But it's all pretty academic. The correct box is shown on an article I wrote a couple of years ago
It's hard to determine value as the original IWS scopes are very rare over here in the USA. I know I wouldn't part with mine for anything less than a King's ransom!
Has anyone got the newer version (L8A2) that will sit on the L96 ?
Yep..........!
Thats two I know of in circulation, were these designed to go on anything ? or just the L96Quote:
