    Yea verily, that was a steal. As I see it, you bought a Parker sight with adjustable backsight ring for a sensible price - and got a free rifle!

    You got that one right Patrick. When you're at an auction over here and one of these 7.62 rifles comes up for sale it's obvious which ones are being sold with sights, even if you're blindfolded. The ones without sights go for £40-£80, but the ones with sights shoot up to £100+ almost straight away.
    Nice rifle Mick.

    A sad end to this thread I'm afraid; I spoke to Mrs Hart this morning only to find out that Geoff Hart had passed away last October.
    I had been chasing his address and phone number for some time, sadly too late.
    There were so many things I wanted to ask Geoff regarding his work on the 7.62mm conversions which I dare say will now remain answered.
    John Light who started Brindles Engineering summed Geoff Hart up perfectly:

    "he was a super engineer commanding my greatest respect".

    And that from a man who I think is a super engineer!
