Anyone know where I could pick up drawings/plans for a Barr & Stroud GM2 reflector gunsight?

No idea, but have you checked with Sarco? They have everything.
Www.sarcoinc.com

I have nothing useful to add. But, wow. That is an oustandingly obscure request.
As the person who usually makes bizarre information requests on the internet, I salute you. You've made my day slightly stranger by my researching this. For any information junkies out there who want more weirdness: stirling cryocooler =D

Fly320s: Quick check of SARCO shows probably not. But then, they really don't deal in gunsights out of WW2-era fighters.
Nick: You're welcome.

That's a fighter sight? Didn't know that.
Does England give public access to their patent office?
In 1900, the noted scientist and optical instrument designer, Sir Howard Grubb (1844-1931), filed Patent No.12108 for 'Improvements for sighting devices for guns'. In the following year the Royal Dublin Society published a paper by Sir Howard entitled 'A New Collimating Telescopic Gunsight for Large or Small Ordnance'.
