Enfield No5 Rear Sight Help Requested!

[tungngroove2000]

Long story short, I have a Jungle Carbine with all metal matching numbers with a great bore. However the rear sight is not No5Mk1 as it max range is 13 as opposed to 8. Below are some pics of the rifle, I am wanting to get the correct rear sight. I have shown every stamp I could find on the metal. Needing some input from the experts out there to tell me what stamps the correct sight should have on it. Have seen them with B and P and F on them and i'm assuming to be correct this would require one with an F. Any input would be appreciated and especially if you know where the correct sight can be located. Thanks in advance.....


No5 Mk1 ROF F 12/44

I see new #5 sights on ebay all the time. Once you know what letters you need, look on ebay.

yep...I noticed that as well, but I would like to ensure getting the right marks. Thanks Ganderite

Your receiver was made at the Fazakerley arsenal, so having an F marked rear sight would seem to be the best choice?

That sight I think is a sight for an older 4mk1 as the newer ones had the clip grip elevation I think... if I remember my Lee Enfield history.
