While we're on the topic what about those German eyepieces that have a combination iris & eyesight correction device. Are those considered "magnifying"? ![]() ![]() |

Okay, thanks for that... I didn't know. I've used the free version of it, not wanting to run into the same problem down the road that Geoff ran into - too many images uploaded here, preventing him from posting some new images until he deleted some of his older ones. I may do further exploration of it, but for most of what I've used it for here so far, it serves the purpose of being explanatory in relation to what its posted with.

If they are, what about the diopter inserts for A.J. Parker and Parker-Hale eyepieces?

Mick: At the risk of leaving people thinking my Conspiracy Theorist side has kicked in... do you get the same image and message if you log into this website and forum through a VPN that lets you set your location as being inside CONUS?

That might be above my paygrade Rick; it's too late over here for me to try but I'll look at it over the weekend.

Thanks for the heads up. Did this just start or has it always been that way?

Fairly recently I think Chaz, it's probably down to my laptop settings.

I am still considering buying one of those diopter sights for my AJP 4/47. Aging eyes and all that jazz....

Watch out for the diameter of them if you do. I had serious issues getting it to clear the bolt handle for firing & even more removing the bolt for cleaning. ![]() ![]() The folding AGP/BSA No9W sight & its adapter is the best in many ways as it can simply be folded out of the way. ![]() ![]() |

Its actually a nice sight & easily detachable too. Technically it weak because of the 2 pivots, but I find it perfectly adequate.

If you're interested in old gun catalogs, look up Cornell Publications.
They offer REPRINTS of old catalogs. They have at least 25 Parker-Hale/Parker catalogs spanning from 1933 - 1970. They're REPRINTS; they're decent copies of originals I've also picked up several vintage BSA catalogs from them. Relatively inexpensive and a good source of information. |
