This was was first manufactured in the early 1940s and immediately preceeded the Söderin. There are different calibration rings for different ammunition. One of the more common of the Swedish diopter sights, the Söderin was produced first in the late 1940s. There does need to be a clearance cut perpendicular across the rear receiver bridge for the windage when the sight is adjusted all the way down. All adjustment mechanisms such as focus, windage and elevation have been perfected to have smooth and pleasant action to make the sights use satisfactory. The fit is tight, so you may need a BRASS PUNCH to move it. There is a short and tall version of this sight. Windage adjustment is accomplished by sliding the dovetail piece left or right in its slot. Of all the Swedish front target sights I like this one the best but inserts are unique to this unit and are not as fine as I would like. 1896 Swedish Mauser, Target Sights, Dipoter Sightsīelow is shown the plastic cover for the Elit and the front sight, "kornring", that holds various post or aperature inserts.
