Any markings on it at all?
Maybe an early PH?
Some associated material in the MKL for this thread, extracted from the Technical Articles/Research for Milsurp Collectors and Re-loaders section. ... :thup:

I'm not sure what you're problem is ... :confused:Quote:

As the comments in one of the MKL links I left you say:
See if you can locate a copy of that book which is quite good about the evolution and versions of this company and it's sighting products.Quote:
3. For anyone interested in gaining a better understanding of the evolution of A.J. Parker/Parker Hale micrometer sights, I'd recommending locating this rare and interesting book called A Century of Sights and Sighting Aids by Edna Rosalind Parker. She is the daughter of Alfred J. Parker (founder of Alfred J. Parker Ltd.) and granddaughter of A.G. Parker (founder of Parker hale Ltd.). With her knowledge of the business and access to all of the various historical documents and pictures of the various sights, this little book makes for a very through and accurate reference piece on the subject. There is no ISBN number for it, so I'd suggest you use a "Google" search on the title to see if you can find a copy from one of the rare used book sources on the Internet. I found my copy on a table at a local gun show. ....... (Feedback by "Badger")

No, I couldn't find anything else either. Wait though, now we have it identified, there will be others that know them.
thankyou Mr. Jim!Quote:

Well, that took a minute, but you found it. Now we all benefit.
... In the end I found enough information to be able to write a reference page :)

Thanks for the return on this, more information is better...
A very "steampunk" looking device. I find the technology and workmanship of the old iron sights fascinating all on their own.
