    Variants of the Parker Hale PH5B

    How many variants of the Parker-Hale Model 5B Aperture sight were there made?

    I have a "square" one, see picture 1 and one with a "slanted" side, see picture 2. At the bottom of the second picture you can clearly see the thread running for the height adjustment, something which is not visible in the square one.

    I'm aware of the different eye pieces that are available.

    Looking forward to hear from 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.

    The first one is more common (and more compact).
