    There is a whole array of different sights and very confusing.

    This is a mk1 sight,

    Google Image Result for http://www.ds-solutions.co.uk/images/tn%2520No5%2520JC%2520Rear%2520Sights%25201.jpg

    The little thumb wheel gives 1/2 MOA, it was fitted to early no4 mk1s early in the war and to no4 mk2s after the war. It should be cheap to buy, $50US

    **edited** oops what Ive shown you is a no5 sight I think.

    Here you go n04 sights,

    enfield no4 mk1 rear sight - Google Search

    The reason there were different sights was the above one was hard and hence slow to make, so they swapped to easier to make ones to speed up production during the war. After teh war they went back to them.

    Then there are competition target shooting type sights, if you want to hunt I would think the mk1 above would suit best. Its what I have for service rifle. If you want to target shoot then there are sights with windage but they cost typically 5 to 6 times as much.

    Im currently looking for one of these so I can shoot in long rnage competiton but they seem to be priced around $200~300US or more,
