    Boy this is going to be wide open. They are all as good as each other as far as quality goes. The Olympic and International are probably more period for the 52. The International preceeded the Olympic as an improvement with tension spring adjustments to take up any slack as far as only the class of thread fit was concerned. The International also comes in a "Mark 8" version which provided 1/8min. adjustments instead of the standard 1/4min. The International set also has the option of two different height front sights when going from long to close range so as to minimize rear sight adjustment to recover zero. Never did like the looks of the Palma though it is a great sight. Other good period sights were the Witek-Vaver 5237, 5238, and "35" series; Lyman 524 & 525; & Marble-Goss. Hope this helps.
