I have just fitted a No8 rear sight to an early MH Greener conversion, mostly because I could see the witness mark and screw holes of the one that had previously been removed. It is nice to to see the rifle back and looking as it did do in a previous life and I am looking forward to shooting it. The sad part is the addition has probably doubled the value of the rifle.

I was recently offered a quite reasonable Vickers Jubilee and the seller pointed out he could get GBP270 for the sights only. Such a nonsense really.

Keep it for now, there may be another toilet paper shortage soon :o
Good point, just that I feel rather embarrassed to have the book in my house. Especially since I have always thought Corbyn is a bell end.

The .22 book arrived yesterday, it is rather splendid with many plates, some British and others, mainly US.

There are several Dardicks. Will work my way through it.
