    WW2 Japanese scope question

    Is anyone aware of a listing of known WW2 Japaneseicon sniper scopes to help people trying to re-unite them with the original rifles?

    I know there's one on this forum for Enfield T4 scopes/rifles.

    Thanks

    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.

    If you list the rifle issue number on the scope I can tell you if the known sniper rifle has been reported. Photos are always the best.

    While there is no listing of scope numbers on the web, Victor Soto over on Gun Boards has a pretty extensive list of both sniper scopes and rifles that he published a while back in a book on Japaneseicon sniper rifles. He keeps the list pretty current and is the man to go to if you are trying to unit a scope to a rifle.
