    This is marked US Navy and I thought maybe it was a periscope...very heavy. There is kind of a print out window with a strip of tape that seems like carbon paper. Anyone have an idea? Thanks for any help on this military item.

      Maybe a type of sighting device.

      Interesting! What does it say on the shiny tube on the side? Seems to be some text there...

      Hi JunkLady,
      My husband worked as a microscope technician for many years, and he feels this is surveying equipment. Hope this helps
