    Help to identify this scope No 32 - MK1 - 1942

    Hi all,
    I appoligaise for this post if its in the wrong place. (hence this post)
    I have a (I think) WW2 Sniper Scope, the details stamped on the body are as follows:
    TEL SIGHTING
    No 32 MK1
    W
    1942 No 2071
    OS 466 A
    Also a small up arrow underneath

    I need to post details and a request for advice for a valuation and where is the best place to offer it for sale.
    This is my first post so I don't wish to be branded a prat.
    Regards
    Tony

    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. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    If you want to sell it, put it on that well known auction site. That's all there is to it. That way you will get the price that someone wants to pay for it. That isn't what it's worth, or it's value. It's just the price that someone is willing to pay

    A question while we're kind of on the subject; Is it forbidden to name that well known auction site even though we all know what it is?

    Could you do me a favour and check the turret body carefully for a small Magen David (Israeli star).
    The serial number 2071 puts in within a small number of Mk.1 scopes found with Israeli markings.
    Just a shot in the dark...
    Thanks
