With thanks to Advisory Panel member Peter Laidler, Part 2 of this series has been added to the Technical Articles for Milsurp Collectors and Re-loaders (click here).

The WEAPONSIGHT, IMAGE INTENSIFIED, L1 series - Part 2 (by Peter Laidler) (click here)

Also, as with Part 1 (click here) of Peter's article, thanks again to Ricoim and harlikwin, for their additional material provided under the Collector's Comments and Feedback section. Besides the pics provided by Peter accompanying his article, see additional pics from Ricoim of the PVS-1 night scope mounted on his L42A1 rifle, plus zeroing instructions and pics of the infantry scope reticule by harlikwin. Apparently harlikwin collects night sights, so we're hoping to see a lot more detailed information and articles from him about these interesting collectibles, in the coming months.

Article Extract .....

The OG lens cap. MOST important bit of kit. There were several different types and this is the latest. Note the small pinhole in the centre. There was sufficient light allowed to pass into the tube to allow the sight to operate and allow it to be zeroed in daylight. But written around the edge in large letters were the words ‘DO NOT REMOVE IN DAYLIGHT’

As with reading any kind of article, whether it be traditional paper magazine based, or in this case an electronic format, it's sometime difficult to gauge the reader's interest level. Peter has requested that if anyone has any questions on his current series of articles, comments or additions for inclusion in his articles under the "Collectors Comments and Feedback" section of the MKL article, or ideas for future topics, that they please leave feedback for him in the appropriate announcement thread, or email them to badger@milsurps.com for forwarding.

Regards,
Badger
