Very nice, Pete.

Is the 42mm some type of special order?

Pete,
Looks ...interesting!
Give us a 90 degree side-on view! ...the perspective is pretty wild on those shots.
Cost?!

Pete,
That is definetely the ultimate rifle scope. Being in the military, I would have to take out a loan to purchase that S&B, or sell my first born.That things a beaut.

Matt, that any better?
Jon L. this is, as far as i know the very first 4-16x42PMII released to the civilian market, i got it becuase the scope is built on a concept i developed for an ultimate sniper scope and it took me 10 years to get S&B to build it. Its a pretty nice feeling having a scope like that and knowing it was my idea. Hans Bender didn't want to entertain the " free scopes for life and a caribien cruise" as a thankyou though, but he did send me a nicenote to say thanks,.
The scope shouldn't be special order, but its not on general release yet. put an order in. i doubt it will take 10 years to get yours.
Brandon, if your in the Military, get on a sniper training course, The Marines are getting 3-12x50'S and the Army are playing with this 4-16x42 at the minute. Otherwise, get stationed some where you can purchase tax free and then let me know.

Pete,
Being that I am only a F-15 avionics technician, I don't get to play with all of the good toys. Just for my kicks, could you quote a price for one of those puppies.
Thanks,
Brandon

Are the dimensions the same in all respects (less the objective diameter!) to the 4-16x50? what about weight?

 

[Dave King]

Is there a lay-away plan??? I gotta have one!

 

[Buffalobob]
