They are worth quite a bit. Mostly because Star Wars enthusiasts use them on dummy “blasters” modelled on those from the films.
Those of us who were young men in the 70's may remember this sight system. Some thought they were good for following moving targets like running wild pigs when I was in South Africa. Have they any value to collectors today? One is for rifle and the other for shotgun with larger red dot.

They look in good condition and probably fetch a couple of hundred each on the auction site, I got £180 each for mine and they where unboxed and not as good condition..
Wow, that is a surprise. Thanks for the info guys, was thinking I would have to list them on Facebook market at a fiver each.

Bu**er... I had one on an air rifle for a while back in the 70s... didn't get on with it and gave it away.!!!
If you list them on fleabay and sell them to a buyer in America, the home guard, customs to you and I snap the dome off them to make sure there's nothing hidden inside the unit.
,AA , Magtech , Arnie, Sako, Ruger . plus the others .
Until Hakko brought out their red dots they were the only viable option, they saw a fair bit of military use both official and unofficial. I’ve got one with a green dot. Hens teeth

Bit of info here.
I sold a generic 1970's Jap cheap scope on the bayofdreams a few years ago (ASI ?).......anyway, I thought it may make 10-15 quid, but it went for over £80 I recall......I have never seen a single Star Wars film so had no idea someone out there wanted it badly to go on a toy gun
Get them gone......sell them as "Blaster Sights" or whatever.
Just looked and one sold recently on the 25th August for £180, it was listed as a Star Wars Single Point to give you an idea
ATB, ED
I'd have said boxed as these are £250 each...
Love to have a decent scan of that brochure before you move it on if at all possible?
Good luck, probably a nice rifle there
First one I listed just sold for £200 in 5 minutes. Think it was too cheap. I will try a different tack on the second one. I will try to get colour copies of the pamphlet as they are huge when unfolded. Had a good week selling, just started Facebook Market, sold 2 bikes, chainsaw and TV in a couple of days. Better that that horrible bay, people pitch up and collect.

Just checked the one I have left it is brand new, think I may keep it. Only got bottom half of box, and now a new leaflet to go with it.
