Barry,
The rubber eye piece is probably the same as on any tank sight. My Polsten was fitted with one and in the old days of MV shows you would often see them on stalls for sale over here.
Interesting that the owner of the Bedford who I think is/was Colin Brooks said it was made in Canada. This could be the reason it is listed as a MK1 but bares no similarity to the British MK1.
Is there any museum or army organisation in Canada who might have more information?
Thanks James
