A5/B4 scope also Evans Bros's WW1 scope mounts

[harlton]

Hi Roger,
Thanks again for coming to my aid, I'm not sure I've seen the first aluminium mount you refer to,unless it's that bracket that fits from the trigger guard. I'm awaiting a look at the British Sniper, when it arrives on inter-library loan.
I have a copy of Robert Spielauer's book, and see what looks like two sets of Evans mounts shown in it. First the just F&R square box type, and then the similar set with the inverse sine wave extension added on, and then a brass rod protruding out of it. I take it that's the worm wheel type, Thanks very much for that tip, much appreciated.
In Skennerton's book, British Empire Sniper rifles he lists the Evan's Bros as the largest suppliers of Goerz scope combo's, not sure exactly what he mean's when he splits the two groups first to early 1915 group, which would suit my receiver date and amounting to 80 units, then a further 120. I have a really nice Georz scope and matching 12x bino's too, to play with.
Another question while I've got you Roger, is are the scopes listed as Evans scopes, actually British or are they earlier German scopes, being that their still in brass, then converted slightly and renamed, Evans. I understand this went on quite a bit, especially from other books I have, and they look so German.
Also Sorry for my ignorance, but where can I obtain a copy of your articles, I'm interested in reading them, thanks a lot for all your help.

A very nice collection, I really prefer the WW1 rifles too, although I can't knock my Fake LB 4T, and even though it's just a replica, it's still really nice, but not even close to as interesting. Do you know anything of the C.L.L.E.'s that they were suppose to of kitted out , I've hear'd them refereed too, with all kinds of sights and, mounts.

Best regards Ian
