    Scoped .22 SMLE Trainer?

    Afternoon, I have just picked up this 1908 BSA SMLE training rifle. I bought it for two reasons, firstly it came with a Hiscock-Parker magazine and secondly, it has a scope fitted.
    The scope is marked up as a no.42 and has no windage/elevation on the scope itself, instead uses the dials on the Parker Hale MK7 mount. The very little info I can fid suggest that this scope would have been used on tank/armoured vehicle's machine gun (this would explain the lack of windage/elevation).
    Does this sound right to you guys and was this the sort of thing that was put on the rifles for training?
