Guys,
I need an Original Martini-Henry rifle early type long cocking indicator for my MkII. While the one I have works, it looks like it was trampled over by Durnfords cavalry…
And yes, I have checked Mr. Aspenshaws site as well as IMA, alas, no joy.

If you can't wait to pick one up then Peter Dyson does have them sometimes in the UK but at silly money IMO - I would wait and see what comes along in the scrap boxes at shows personally - a lot of old .22 conversions get broken up for the spares

timothylrose,
Thank you very much for your assist. Regrettably, Mr. Dyson, Numrich, and every other vendor, regardless of location, that I could find using my Google-fu were of no help. I know someone out there has one, I will just keep checking.
Respectfully,

I'll keep an eye open as I say lots of scrapped .22 and .303 conversions around turn up for spares - be safe

timothylrose,
Thank you sir. If I may ask, are you located in the U.K. or perhaps stateside? I am in the U.S., specifically, Washington State.
