Name that Milsurp part???More photos and new challenge???

[#4mk1(T)]

We haven’t played this game for some time now and I know it’s a favorite of 303Carbine’s
so here goes. What are these for and what rifle do they belong to?

I’m getting ready to sell the firearm these belong to and I suspect this won’t be to hard but thought it might be fun.

I have no clue...

But the item on the left clips onto the wooden stock I assume? I don't recongnize it...so it can't be from a german firearm...as I think I know those pretty well...

I'm going to say that it's from a No 1 Mk III. And the sucker on the left is some kind of mount for something? And the item on the left is some sort of site calibration tool?

Great guess but …..No sir.
Thanks for playing!!!
Better luck next time!!!

They look like a front and rear sight to me, I'm thinking for a pistol, but unfortunately I'm not familiar with the make.

90% sure they're sights though.

I thought that too, but they're too big.

it's a picture, boyo, take a look at the grain in the wood. Objects on the screen are smaller than they seem

Alright, but what about the clip on the left part? It's at a completely ackward angle to mount it. Unless it's some kind of elaborate off center sighting system like on a Bren.

just a suggestion. Next time pick something hard to ID

Too late to get my 2p in, but that one was dead easy.

 

[Cocked&Locked]

Hey, if you ever find a spare set of those, I have an AGb-42 they'd look great on!

 

[#4mk1(T)]

Thought I’d add a few shoots with the sites fitted.
First up the back site:

The front site:

The sites with their original little case:

Thanks for your input. Try this one on. I’m not sure if it’s hard or not but I haven’t seen too many.

I’ll be listing the rifle W/ the sites and field kit for sale soon. If the buyer doesn’t want the sites I’ll sell them separately.

Off hand, a DP clip for the Garand. But then there is nothing to judge scale.

 

[Claven2]

Or possibly a spacer for a Garand clip to limit the capacity to 3 rounds.

Timing guage for the M1

 

[#4mk1(T)]

Good guesses one and all but I suspect John Sukey is correct. Up until this morning I thought Claven2’s answer was the correct one as this is what it was sold to me as by Lever Arms about 6 years ago. I took it up to the range today to try it out for the first time and it won’t hold the rounds in the clip. Additionally the clip won’t be ejected after the last round as the follower is depressed by the insert. The only logical conclusion is that it is for training troops in the proper loading technique of the M1 Garand.

 

[John Sukey]

So how about another one???

 

[Hitzy]

Mabey a single loading device.....
