Original U.S. WWII M4A1 Tank Periscope in Korean War Era Repack Box MG 42 Accessories Germany wanted to keep theOriginal Item. Only One Available. This is a lovely example of a WWII M4A1 Tank periscope, an improved version of the M4. This one was magnified, but not much at 1. 44x, and a 9 degree field of view. Later versions of this periscope had illuminated reticles. The mount was not improved though not the linkage. The M4A1 periscope was changed when the 105mm and 76mm armed Shermans came online when used with these guns. They had the M47A2 for the 76 tanks
