Can Anyone ID This Sight


Recommended Posts

I came across this artillery sight. On the rear side is a C and arrow. I believe it reads RI-5-43. The stampings are very hard to read. There is no glass in the top tube. It read 300yds, 600yds 900yds. Traverse was 2 Degrees left and right. It searching for this online its possible its for a 17pdr. A friend thinks it maybe for an 18pdr. There is a retangle wire site at the end as well. The pictures aren't the greatest. Any ideas gentlemen? Thanks for your time.
