    FN C1 A1 Sniper Scope cover

    Has anybody seen a FN C1 A1 (Canadian) sniper cover for the PVS 502 Night Vision Scope? NSN 5855 - 21 - 871 - 4140. There's one in the Canadian War Museum in Ottawa, Canadaicon and a picture on their website. How rare are these? What would a guy expect to pay for one? Ron (Canada)

    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. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    That's correct. The dust cover mount is what I'm asking about. You see PVS 502 for sale.

    Wondered when you'd show up...yes it is... And they were one to a case with the 502s. I don't see them loose now though.

    I was just in the gunroom, and realize I have a spare of this mount on the shelf. Must have been a leftover from when I bought the scopes some 20 years ago.

    Looks like you need to PM him and let us know after what these are presently worth. That is, once you two figure that out.

    How many C1's have you got Kev?
    Given up building one here, it would be easier to get a unicorns horn than a C1A1 reciver and TMH!

    At least I can study examples at Warminster on occasion I guess....
