Nice sight, Steven.

I have a sight exactly like the one shown in the WR catalog. I believe it was made by Mannlicher Schoenauer.

The Volk in east-central Europe have wisely aligned themselves and their rifles to the "Diopter".

Best,

C.

This is a page from an A. G. Parker catalog. Parker and Parker Hale supplied most of the sights for British rifles. Lancaster, H&H, Cogswell & Harrison all cataloged both English and U.S. sights.

I am a bit amazed that the English were using American tang sights and do not seem to have developed anything comparable, especially for the medium bores. Does anybody have knowledge of any proprietary designs?s

Lots stuff for bolt guns, Rigby peep etc. I can not think of a proprietary English tang sight for a Single shot or double. Even Holland just modified a Lyman to work in the tang of their rifles.

I am starting to understand; no offense to our English friends. BTW, a flip up as posted by SDH on ebay right now for those interested. Search vintage sights
