Rifle Rear Sight Identification

**MinerJohn** · 12-16-2017 08:51 PM

I apologize if I'm in the wrong forum. I've been trying to identify these three sights and cannot nail them down. Does anyone recognize them? I would appreciate the help. Thank you.

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.

Sorry if this is not a precise answer - I am going by my feeling for style - but it might help you to look in the right area.
One at left is of a French icon

/German

smallbore trainer or plinker
One in centre is Germanic
One at right is also from a smallbore trainer or plinker, maybe French. reminds me of the MAS36 sight.

OK maybe just guesses, but it gives you a direction.

Yes, one at right is the MAS45 (smallbore-trainer version of the MAS36, made post-WWII)

The one at centre, scaled 100 to 1000, looks like something from a carbine or the Mauser C96 pistol (my tip).

Yes, the left hand sight is from a .22. I removed one from a scrapper once, but do not recall the make.

the centre sight marked to 1000m is Czech icon

manufactured for the German icon

contract G.33/40.

Too bad the sight base ring has been hacked off.
