So you are looking for the MKI or MKII chargers ?

MKI chargers are very very hard to find and costly 

MKII are easier to find but still costly

Excellent - there are two versions of the MKII ones with the 3rd pip and ones without it

While we're on the subject.
does anyone know the purpose of the third pip?
I have a few & no one so far seems to know its purpose.
ignore the arrows, they're about something else.

So your top one is a MKI charger and I have not seen any details why there was a 3rd pip - apparently it wasn’t need as it was removed.

Yes top is a Mk1 bottom is a mk2 with the reinforcing ribs on the back.
Yeah its "one of those mysteries" the third pip is never even close to anything on the rifle so I'm stumped as to it's intended purpose.
