[QUOTE="dick471, post: 592030, member: 40448"] I have a KOWA 3x9 scope on a 1957 Win model 70. I bought this scope in Japan in the early 60's for $60.00. Mind you at that time the exchange rate was 360 yen per $. That scope was very expensive in japan. The dealer said it was the best made in japan at the time, pure Fluorite glass and nitrogen filled. (kowa made glass and parts for most scopes sold in the USA and couldn't import under there name). I then had Maynard Buehler mount on the rifle with his mounts. It's as good as any Leopold that I ever had. If I knew how to post a picture in this thread, I would include photo.:cool: [/QUOTE]
