    Walther diopter sight.

    Hello, I've been searching the net for some foresight elements for my Walther LGV Spezial. The closest match I have found are Anschutz elements like this one

    The tabs don't seem to line up like the Walther types, this is my one and only.

    If anyone has any they could part with or has any suggestions of maybe adapting other makes to fit I would be very grateful..
    all the best...Dave..

    can you measure the dimensions of your one element and I'll see if I can match it up to ones that I've got lying around.

    I would need to know the diameter of the element and the width of both tangs,

    I think UKNeil does some nice perspex ones. A bevel cut around the holes creates a shadow which gives the impression of a floating circle. If you want to stick to the original ones, let me have the diameter and tab sizes in a PM and I'll see if I have any in my spares box.

    Edit: just seen Vic's post. What he said.

    Thanks for the replies, I like the idea of the perspex ones, a floating circle sounds great, if they can be made to fit, but I would like to have some original ones if possible.
    The diameter is 16mm
    and the tabs are, the wide one 4mm, narrow one 3mm and its marked 4.2 which I think will be the diameter of the aperture.
    Many thanks..Dave..

    PS/ How do I get in touch with UKNeil does he have a website?..
