Are these hard to come by?
£15 seems a bit steep to me. Couldn't find any additional info - other than one sold for £40 ina 'proper' auction.

There was a large quantity of them floating around a few years ago, I was given a pile which I subsequently gave away.
I believe they all came from AJ Parkers during their closing down stage. A friend picked up a couple of new boxes of bowl No.4 magazines for £25 a box!

Lucky sod!

I've seen some of those ready reckoner windage do-dads too - just a square with a wheel in and a viewing slot - they've been going for silly money too.

Ah.

My interest was sparked by the fact that I have just discovered what the atrocious over-stamping on my No.4 Mk2 says (I've only had it
21years!)

'Regulated By Fulton'

It's fitted with PH5C aperture sights. Whilst mooching about on the web I came across the windage thingy and book and wondered how they would tie in with my sights. It's a Sunday and nothing much else to do. :)
