Ever take a sight off to replace it with the original , then 10 years later try to figure out where you put the mounting screws??:confused:
I decided to put the 5C back on my Lee Enfield No.4 Long Branch yesterday, and the sight is in its little box, but form the life of me I cannot find the danged screws!!
If anybody can help me out with info on where to find some, it would be greatly appreciated!
I have an add in the exchange, but figured II would post here as opposed to the MILSURP forum because the Parker hale 5C too my way of thinking is not really a MILSURP part even though the No.4 Long Branch certainly is!:cool:
Any help would be super apppreciated!

Sorry - no longer have mine - the screw that went through rear sight axle hole was either 3BA or 4BA size threads - no longer have one here to check for you - have spare cap screws that I bought as replacements - but have both sizes - so not sure which for the 5C. Mine had a short hex head screw that went through the left side ear - others used a long screw that went through both ears of the rear sight axle - had read those could "bend in" the ear if overtightened. Lower front screw was a replacement for the ejector screw - a bit longer than the standard ejection screw, so the ejection function was maintained.
 
If it helps, somewhere, I have a couple extra screws for the 5E sight that was on my 1200TX - 3/16 British Standard Fine. If those would work, we could figure something out.

Maybe someone else with the screws at hand could measure them?
