    One of the oddities in my sight collection.

    My grandmothers brother was a survivor of Gallipoli and the western front, shipped home in early 1918 and discharged as medically unfit, after a gas attack.

    One of the tidbits he gave me, along with a lot of stories and memorabilia, was a neat little sight piece sent to him by his father.

    So let's have a look at what I've got.

    That would be SOOOO much fun to try out! Family, history, technology all wrapped up in one little item. What more could ask for?

    Very neat. You'd want a firm grip on the rifle.
