Non clicking Enfield sight?
I replaced the flip sight on my no 4 mk 1 with a ladder sight and i noticed that it doesnt click when you turn the knob at the top, can someone tell me what i need to do to fix this? the sight still moves up and down when you turn the knob i just want it to click

Did you clean it realllly good with some kind of solvent and a tooth brush?
The one I bought I had to clean the detents under the knob and free up the spring that pushes the little ball bearing that fits into the detents. It still doesn't click much. |

The No4 Mk1 ladder sight was never made to literally 'click' ... if the sight adjusts up and down then it is working exactly how it is supposed to function; no more and no less I'm afraid.
A horses hooves won't clip clop all the time either ...  Tiki.
