Some years ago I acquired a main gun sight for a Russian t34 tank on a trade. I know virtually nothing about it other than than. It has the hammer and sickle on the side with the date of 1966. I'm just wondering what this thing migh be worth, or if there's even a market for it. I'll add some photos of it at a later date, but in the meantime, I found this diagram on the web. Any information would be greatly appreciated, as I have been sitting on this thing for quite a few years, and it's just taking up space.

  In 1966, the T34 was long out of production. You might have a sight from a T54, which was in full swing production at that time....either way, pretty cool.

  There's ALWAYS a market for military hardware. As far as value, well, put it up for auction and find out what the market will bear.

  It definitely was a t34... They were retrofit into the hardware that some of the satellite countries still had in service.... My understanding is this one came from Slovenia. I did a pile of research on the t34, and I used to have a picture of the tank, that was how I was able to identify it
