Single Point Red Dot by Normark Model SP220 Vintage 1970

The Singlepoint is an ancestor of today's red dot sights. It created a stir back in the
seventies. It was discussed in the English Parliament. Its moment of fame came on
the Son Tay raid in the Vietnam war. It even got writeups in Popular Mechanics and
Popular Science, honors reserved for things that were maximally cool.

Comes in original box and paperwork. Appears to work as intended.

This sight is an occluded eye sight which means that your brain superimposes the
red dot over the target when you look through the sight with both eyes open.
Very hard to find this particular model in the US, with the correct long red filament
and clear conical dome as used in Star Wars.
Also used on several other Star Wars blasters including the DH-17 rebel blasters at
the beginning of The New Hope and Chewbaccas's bowcaster.
