And it's now complete! A sheep in wolf's clothing.
I have added an inscription along with the date inside the turret. Don't expect to see this up for sale tho, this will remain with me until I'm gone. Being I'm only 35 its gonna be a long time away!
Finished off today by painting the index plate arrows, fitting click wheels and greasing everything.
Words can't even Express how happy and pleased I am with the end result. Also proud all the work was done by me. Just to make it even better the whole scope project has cost me £230 all in. Thats No.42 scope, sun shade, turret casting and all parts. (Not including mount)
I will get a picture of it sitting on my 1943 Long Branch tomorrow when the light is better.
Thanks to all who gave me info and answered questions.
