[QUOTE="CatShooter, post: 158267, member: 7"] [ QUOTE ] You do realize that the Unertl Scope with the external mounts,was the Marine Corps. main Sniper scope for decades.That's about as rough and tough of field use and tactical as it gets IMHO.. Go to US Optics web page get the phone number and call them USO will answer your questions......... [/ QUOTE ] The scope that you are referring to, has INTERNAL adjustments, and less than 40 moa. There were some 8x external adjustment Unertl (and 10x Lyman targetspots) issued during WW-II, but that was very limited. These were extremely fragil and had to be carried in separate cases, and fitted to the rifles just prior to the shot. Some of these were used in the beginning of VN, because of a lack of sniper rifles, but they were quickly replaced by Redfield 3x9. The Unertl 10x internal adjustment scope that went only to the Marines, came after VN started. . [/QUOTE]
