BSA Meteor with diopter sights?

[Big Mat]

Hi all.

Has anyone got diopter sights on a BSA Meteor, if so, could you post a picture please and say which ones you have? I'm considering getting a set on one of my meteors and was just wondering what is about.

thanks all

Your BSA Meteor with diopter sights made for the Cadet Forces and even some scouts called I beleive by BSA[ THE METEOR CADET] iI have a mark 5 Meteor Cadet serial no NH58926 ALL OF THEM ARE .177

All of the proper Cadet Rifles are not drilled on the Barrel for sights

Will try and sort you out a photograph

Some 'civilian' Meteors had open rearsights which could be moved to the rear endcap and converted to a basic aperture sight. I think these were the Mk IV models, and these would have bolt-holes in the barrel for sights.

My Mk.V did, too (TH prefix).
