No4 Mk1 T sniper rear leaf sight

[CINDERS]

An armourer would have made it flat due to pride in workmanship and not a half baked effort, the posts and springs are easily obtained the cross pins are there bit more difficult and as Peter has explained you can use a suitable sized nail cut down to put in the rear site axis pin hole.
I brought a spring and plunger for $10.00/AU from a seller on fleabay so they are not that expensive see if simon has a complete rear sight set up.....!

I make them from Mk.1 rear sights with crushed battle apertures. I have a couple of spares here but they both have slides marked "M" for the L42A1.

On the other hand, as an Armourer working in a standard Field or Base - or even at his unit workshop - he'd just get the next leaf out of a small box of assorted spares off the shelf and use that. They weren't changed very often. The biggest fault was a slack cursor slide or screw. So you'd rectify that fault first by tightening the round nut in the slide or replacing the screw retaining pin.

Was there an approved method of tightening the cursor slide on the sight frame? I've seen the odd one punched in a bit on the sides.
