Wanted: Vintage scope

[Sirius1963]

Im looking for an older scope of small/lightweight dimensions to fit onto an older carbine full bore rifle. Im not looking for an expensive contemporary "sniper" scope, just something to help my old eyes. Variable magnification up to 9x or less, or a fixed power scope should do the trick. It will fit onto a picatinny rail, and if it comes with suitable rings so much the better.
Thanks

I have a S&B 6x42 going spare currently if that is something you might like? currently say in optilock rings, would just need bases.

Let me know if that might be of any interest.

Hi - I don’t have a preference for tube width, and an objective no bigger than 40mm . Thanks

Hi - if your scope is still can you tell me the diameter of the eye piece please ?

I have a 1”tube vintage Redfield 3-9X40 if it ticks your boxes?

I have a 1" tube Schmidt & Bender Summit 2.5-10x40 surplus to requirements in very good condition (has been mounted on a rifle but is virtually unused).

That’s a cracker! What price?

 

[Old Waltonian]

I wasn't actually contemplating selling this 'scope until a bit further down the line, hence only the single photo here but thought it just might be of interest to the OP.

£650 including Royal Mail Special Next Day delivery postage?

P.S. Scope only...mounts not included!

Think the OP was after vintage, so likely 40-60 yr old.

Sit on that Summit a bit longer, wanted one for ages, will have to empty the piggy bank and start counting lol

I have a 1960's vintage Kahles Helia, 2.3-7x32 available in very good condition.
It's sitting unused at the moment, so it might as well go somewhere it will be appreciated.
I'd like £150 for it, plus post.

Thanks gentlemen, but neither are exactly what im after

 

[pete evans]

I have Ajax 6x42 and a red field 12x40 if they are the sort of thing you are after

Yes, my mistake... I realised after posting that a S&B 'Summit' hardly qualifies as a 'vintage' 'scope.

(Let me know once you've emptied that piggy bank and we can talk!)

Stick that on eBay and enable international bidding.

99p starting bid and you'll get £300 minimum, NZ and OZ boys love them

Apologies for the delay, its a 40mm objective with overall diameter of 48mm
