    My P. J. O'Hare sight micrometer is marked similarly to FlightRN's, U.S.icon326, with a slightly different font. The markings are in the same location.

    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.

    Has anyone dug out their P.J. O'Hare micrometers and seen if they had a "U.S. XXXX" number stamped? I'm curious to know where the upper end of the applied serial numbers are.
    Best Always,
    Michael

    2) if you want to make an adjustment in the match you fitrt it on the leaf:
    3) the loosen the sight elevator screw .
    4) then make the sight correction to the tool
    5) then tighten the sight leaf screw
    6) then remove the tool.

    That said it does allow for precision adjustments of the analog scale .

    Works better (and faster) if you leave a "slight" tension on the sights set screw. Use the micrometer to drag the sight to setting, set the screw, back micrometer off 2 clicks and remove. Quick and easy

    For the folks that are interested in a good sight micrometer (must have for competition) here is the website http://www.ray-vin.com/ click on the "links" in lower right corner to go to SB sales, they took over production of the micrometers.

    My O'Hare sight micrometer is marked "U,S,298" and came from an old pre WWII shooter, who also competed after WWII up into the 1970's.
