Bought another No5 mk1 ‘Jungle Carbine’. It has a broken sight adjustment screw, the screw head is completely gone on it. I was wondering on how to repair it. Is the head a separate piece from the screw/shaft itself? It does not seem likely that it is; because, on the schematics I have found on the internet, and in Skennerton’s, A Century of Lee-Metford & Lee-Enfield Rifles & Carbines, it shows it being one solid screw, not two separate pieces. The rest of the sight seems fine, as in it is not bent, or out of line, thats why I am curious if its two pieces or just one.
Thanks for any advice. -TimInformation
