    No 32 Mk3 scope - AK&S No 17147 1944 - Ebay UK described as a "Tank Sighting scope" !

    This popped up on Ebay in the UKicon a day or two ago and now sadly no longer available as the seller ended the listing early with only a bid or two at less than GBP100 last time it was live earlier today. It was described as a "tank sighting scope" so not found under the usual "No32 Scope" type searches.

    It looked pretty unloved externally (a couple of pics captured below) but the seller confirmed that the optics were clear, the turrets moved freely and that graticle was intact.

    Hopefully it's gone to a good home and will be brought back to its former glory, maybe someone on here picked it up for a bargain price?

    Ended listing here for details Military tank sighting scope and binoculars | eBay

    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 was following that one as well. Note the binos--they're correct for an L42A1 CES.
