Does Anybody know how find one of these or am I out of luck.
Keep your eyes on fleabay is about all I can say go to militaria type Lee Enfield then click worldwide on the left column or go to some gun fairs either way you will have to shell out a pretty penny hopefully it will come with the yardage plate & indicator sight otherwise that's another item that can cost plenty. Good luck
The sight alone is bringing over $150 consistently on ebay. I've been watching for a P-14 for several years. They go even higher.
I have a dial sight plate which is marked E and the graduations are 1500 to __26 can anyone identify this dial sight plate ?
I may have a LES2 dial plate but have to check as I need a dial plate L.E.S. lll for the Mark V1 cartridge
RCS-- That dial sight plate is made at Eddystone for the P14.

Edit-- The Eddystone manufactured dial sight plates are stamped with an "E" on the front. The Remington "R" and Winchester "W" are stamped on the rear of the dial sight plate which has to be removed from the stock to be identified.
I think that one of our fellow members was considering making reproductions recently; perhaps he will come forward when he sees this thread?
There are reproductions available for the Lee Enfield but not the P-14
I have a dial sight plate on my Mark 1** I P only the stud was machined-off during upgrade to Mark 111 along with a new barrel manufactured in IndiaAttachment 84242

Apparently this guy has them... SMLE No. 1 MK III Front Volley Sight Assembly Reproduction | eBay
Folks-- Numrich Arms or Gun parts are the folks advertising on E-bay. For you folks outside of the US this maybe a problem as at one point they were are shipping some items overseas. You may want to check with them first. Here's a point of contact that has been the Lee Enfield volley sights as well as those parts for the P14 rifles which are missing from most of our rifles. They are re-productions for those folks who do not care. They are a bit pricey.

I had them ship to me in Canada not long ago, Krag wiping rod and oiler. Seemed to mot be a problem. The volley sights could be a bit out of whack compared to the pics, that would be my thought.
