I have done a few, albeit by default! Screws threaded into thin brass were useless. Never truly happy with any of the results. After the first miserably failed the standard 'fastness' test, I never subjected another to it. The No32's would just take it all in their stride.
Save twice to buy once I say. Even a rusty old No32 with a beat-up tube and double focus can be resurrected. Not so an Asian copy. Just my opinion of course Think Mickey Mouse watches. Good to look at but not so good when it comes to telling the time.
While there is still demand, maybe now is the time for an entrepreneur to start converting No42's or 53's to the simplified Mk3 spec. Simplicity itself with current CNC facilities.
Ask me for detais

I restored a No4t and started shooting it with repro scope and mount. Accuracy was okay, but nothing to get excited about. I put an original Mk2 scope and mount on the rifle and groups shrank astonishingly. In my experience, the originals are the best. Don't waste your time and money on junk.

Waffenmeisters No.32 Mk.1 & 2
Anyone have experience with the replicas sold by Waffenmeisters? -
https://www.waffenmeisters.com/optic...-mounts-c-83-1
They offer both Mk. 1 & 2 versions. The Mk.2 looks a lot like Numrich's current offering. Numrich's current Mk.2 is made in Taiwan they told me. Waffenmeisters told me theirs are made in Taiwan by a "reputable defense contractor using Japanese
optics" plus come with a 1 year warranty.....maybe the same place Numrich gets theirs from?
A warranty sounds pretty good compared to sending your money to China and being SOL if you have issues. Numrich has no warranty on theirs.
