I have a PH16m and a still grease wrapped PH17b to dispose of, so it will be interesting to see if the 16m on freeads sells at that price.

The no-suffix PH 16, as you can see from the catalog sheets, was made for .22 rimfires with receiver tubes about an inch in diameter; I used to have one on a classic Remington 550.
The Mk III has a much bigger receiver of course, for which the PH 16M’s base is designed.

How is it the same guy has just (almost) sold this for £125?

What subtlety am I missing?
Too many guns, or not enough time?

Yes! I worked the inside with a file, to adjust diameter. Made it fit a MK3 action/receiver tube diameter. in 90% sideways extension it is usable, not ideal of course. Next is to tab the screw holes, which is a more specialised job I guess. So far so good! Thnx for pointing out the Freeadds PH16m, silly price (125 quid) unfortunately. I'll keep on searching for one.

Some shots below of an old Mk III with a proper PH 16M aboard, and various PH eyepieces.
In my humble opinion, the PH 1 series is the best small sporting peep sight ever made. I’d urge you to hold out for this sight, as opposed to bodging up a PH 16 “no suffix,” which someone out there needs for his rimfire!
Fixed-opening eyepiece:
Sight flipped open - so you can use the open sights!
PH 59 “Midget:”
PH 60, this is the eyepiece usually seen with on the Supertarget’s PH 17M sight:
PH “Iris” leaf-type eyepiece, and gorgeous PH 72 eye shade:
