    Observations:

    This material is great for collectors who have various Parker Hale rear sights on their Enfields, like the Model 5C that was used on DCRA conversions. The pics are scans that were emailed to us and we don't have the originals. Once you click to enlarge them, you should use "right click" on the pic to bring up a drop down menu and select the "Save Picture As..." option. To best view them, load them up in a picture viewer and ZOOM in to enlarge them further. If you don't, you won't be able to read the small type face. Some of the pages are clearer than others, so you might have the best luck by printing them while enlarged, then reading them from printed hard copy later.


    Collector's Comments and Feedback:

    1. On some systems with Microsoft's Internet Explorer, after you click on images in the MKB to ENLARGE them, you may find they automatically size smaller in your browser's window making them hard to read. The auto sizing is your browser's way of keeping images entirely within the screen size you have set.

    If this happens, move your mouse pointer to the bottom right corner of the pic and hold it there. You will see a small box open up with four arrows point outwards and it will say "Expand to Regular Size". Click this box and the pic will open up to it's normal size and you should now be able to read any text and make out small details in the pic. .....
