This was installed on a rifle I purchased years ago from a gentleman that his since passed away.
I sold the rifle recently and the buyer did not want the scope, so for the first time since I owned it I removed the scope.
Overall it was as expected for a scope built in 1988, but I did discover a deep scratch that is not visible when the scope is mounted on the tube just in front of the power ring. It looks like it may have been mounted too low and the sharp radius of a bolt handled scraped the coating off. The power ring works 100% perfectly and the finish scratch is not visible when the scope is on a rifle.
I verified with my calipers there are no dents in the tube where the rings were.
Comes as seen with the scope caps.
$500 shipped considering the scratch and ring marks.
