This guide details the installation of a Galilean telescopic sight, specifically the Lattey model, onto a Short Magazine Lee-Enfield (SMLE) rifle, as demonstrated by firearms expert Jonathan Ferguson. It covers the mounting of both front and rear sight components, highlighting the need for potential hand-fitting due to manufacturing tolerances and the requirement for a specific handguard modification for the rear sight. The video emphasizes that while these sights were adopted in 1915, they represented a 'wrong turn' in sniper sight development due to inherent optical limitations.
