i've a few Mk3 supertargets, and they have 17b model sights...i've not personally seen a 16m on one before, so I think they are a little less common

hi all,just an update on the ph16 sight.i borrowed it from my friend,and tried it against some of my guns.john was correct, it has insufficient adjustment to be used on a webley mk3,also bsa light pattern,bsa breakdown pattern ,bsa standard.would suit a small diameter tube like say a bolt action rimfire,,,,cheers..greasemonkey
more guns than you can shake a stick at!
Thanks for that info greasemonkey! Testament to the time travelling powers of this great forum! I was looking at ph16 sights until I read this post.

Although John Had one fitted to one of his Mk3's! Any chance you could put up some pictures again? I Happen to have 2 of these PH16's, planning to fit one of them on my mk3 as one of the many winter projects. Seems possible to tweak it a bit and make it fit. Need to tap the screwholes in the rifle as well. Futher suggestions concerning fitting a PH16 are welcome.
The PH16 wasmade for the B.S.A. Sportsman and similar bolt action rifles, they whant through 16 c,d,e,f,j,k,n, and of cause m for mk.3. Webley.
Here are a couple of pages of No.16 information from the Parker Hale 1954 catalogue:
Hi Dutch
Those pics I posted before were in Photobucket, They told me that I was infringing copyrights when I posted pics of my own Tag Heuer F1 clock so I deleted everything and closed the account!!
Some pics..
The eyebell was missing on mine, A work mate (Kamag on here) found one in his parts bin, I think he said it came from an Anschutz but it fitted perfectly, The aperture is adjustable too!!
BTW, Mine is a PH-16M..

Hi Dutch,
I have attached a few images of the PH16M. One of the rifles is incomplete sadly.
Hope they help.

Thnx Guys, good detailed insights! the challenge was actually to fit a PH-16 (non M) on a Mk3. I guess its searching for a proper PH16M then, unless anyone has succeeded in doing so? maybe with a bit of metal work it is possible.
