    HT Sniper scope Rubber Eyepiece

    Hi Everyone,

    Just seeking some info on the rubber eye piece, to fit a HT sniper, which i have seen on a few photos only.

    Are they rare items? And what would this piece of rubber be worth these days??

    Cheers

    Damon

    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.

    That would be the one.
    As a collectors accessory, how much would one pay for it??

    Hi DamonL, and welcome to milsurps, mate.

    The sniper cheek piece does not exist as a spare part. Unfortunately it seems very very few have survived at all, let alone in a useable condition. A couple of us here have been looking towards getting a few re produced at some stage, once enough info has been gathered about sizes etc, so at the moment this seems the only hope.


    Cheers,
    Brad.
