They are ALL correct.

I expect this will be an easy one for Peter et al - I was shooting my No4 Mk 1(T) with iron sights on Sunday, for the first time. I found the adjusting screw which elevates the slide has a "rotational floppiness" about it and not a definite click as it goes round.
What do I need to replace, in what sequence do I take it apart, and what goes wrong when doing it the 1st time?
I attach a diagram of the parts to help the explanation make sense to me...

what rear sights are correct

If you'd asked what originally came mounted...it would have been the one pictured by RobD below.

What do I need to replace

I'd say they all have a certain amount of slop. I'd just change sights. Or use a PH 5C for target and then change back to the other when it's not needed...

Thanks Peter, I shall follow those instructions.

I didn't want to replace the original No 4(T) rearsight which has its ground-off battle sight. Hence my wanting to fix this one up. Yes yes Peter I know it would be OK in your hands but I am a sentimental fool...

As for a target sight: I use the PH 8/53 sight, which is a quick fit to the original rearsight.
I had even hoped it would flip down and allow the No 32 scope to sit above it - but no such luck - even with the eyepiece unscrewed the 8/53 sight body prevents proper seating of the telescopic sight.
