The 2-pdr A/T used the No.24B Mk.3 scope or, in Australia, the No.124 (Aust) Mk.1 Scope.

The 25-pdr also listed the No.24B Mk.3 and the No.124 (Aust) Mk.1 as alternatives.

As marked, this is an Australian scope manufactured by J.W. Handley Pty Ltd in Victoria, Australia. Company also manufactured dial sights and other optics. It is dated 1941, so most likely for the 2-pdr A/T or 25-pdr guns. Matilda didn't start arriving in Aust until first half of 1942.

I pulled it back out and checked it, it's a No. 124 L.P. Mk.1 scope
