    How would one go about finding PH rings for a nice sporter?

    Hi everyone,

    Well I've been trying for a few months now, with no success. I missed a set on Ebay a few weeks ago...

    I worked on a really nice No1Mk3-based Parker-Hale sporter, and the factory scope mount requires PH rings. Obviously, they are as rare as... well, rare as olympic gold medals for Canadaicon.

    Anywone has a lead on where I could find a set, so I could complete this project?

    Thanks for any tip (which will be rewarded with eternal gratitude!)

    Lou

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

    Lou

    Which Parker Hale rings are you after?

    - RALS3. 1" low mount - I have one spare set
    - RAHS3. 1" high mount - I have one spare set
    - RALS4. 26mm low mount - Have none so I can't help
    - RAHS4. 26mm high mount - as fitted to Enforcer rifles - rare and usually pricey. Only just purchased a set after a 12 month search. Sorry but these are not available.


    I also have another spare set of 1" Paker Hale rings that are of a different design.

    Can post pics if it helps.

    Happy to help if I have what you need.

    Cheers

    Paul

    Hi Lou. What base mount is on the rifle? It will determine which rings you need as there are at least 3 different widths. Also need to know scope tube diameter. Ron (rgg_7@hotmail.com)
