Wanted: GLOSSY JAPANESE SCOPE 1980's

[andy R204]

Having recently acquired my 1983 HW77 I'm looking for a period scope.
I'm looking for a scope with variable mag preferably but aware a lot of that era are fixed mag.
Need something that is in good condition for it's age & complete.
I haven't a big budget so no big Tasco's & the likes.
Dm me with any offers.
Regards,Andy.

So, it’s a bit more battered than I remember, has obvious scope ring marks but it’s still very clear and bright. It says Kassnar Wide in orange in the side and 4x - the objective is approximately 40mm which is odd as the only reference to these “tv”-shaped scopes were 32mm ones. Solid cross wide cross hairs with thin central portion. Definitely a 1”

It’s doing nothing here and I’ll never use it - DM me an offer if you are interested Also, appears to have exceptionally long eye-relief compared to my normal scopes!

I have a few gloss scopes on my vintage guns and one spare, so one can go;Bushmaster 4x40 good condition but optics are not perfect. Unbranded 4x40 (simmons copy) near mint with clear optics. Simmons 3-9x40 in very good condition throughout, all duplex ret.

I have a mint Nikko 4x32 parallax AO , BNIB, and a, lovely little Nikko 4x28.
The Tasco 20x42 PAREALAX AO adjustable, is probably way to big, but it's mint.
All are a glossy tubes of that era.
