I was left a curious piece of optics when my dad passed recently.
It's a "dot" sight that uses a prism to project a dot on the lens. And it works with ambient light.
Has anyone ever seen one of these before?

Is it a Weaver Qwik Point? I have one for Remington 1100/870 & one for a rifle. Uses a primitive fiber optic to glow. I have used mine a few times just to see how it worked. Some are very clear and others cloudy.
.
Hard to tell, if it's unbranded, and no pics.
Red Dot reflex sights, even the early Opima 2000, use a battery - as does the Accupoint.
It could also be a:
Armson OEG
Meprolight
Trijicon ACOG
Weaver Quick Point

Now I lay me down to sleep
A gun beside me is what I keep
If I awake, and you're inside
The coroner's van is your next ride
This one is steel, brass and glass. It's brand name is nydar ,model #47.
There is nothing cheaply made about it. It still has the leather carrying case.
Found a few good hits on google for your Nydar sight, looks like the one in the article uses a base which yours does not have, I suppose they made different bases for different applications.
