hi,thanks to all who replied to the thread,all info much appreciated.i will try and borrow this sight and offer it up to my classic british springer collection and see what it could fit out of interest,as you say john many guns could be fitted with theses sights.i found a BSA sportsman five rimfire with a ph16 fitted on the internet.one of these little beeezers was my first ever rimfire back in 1973.happy days..cheers all..greasemonkey
more guns than you can shake a stick at!
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

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.
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.
