fla3006What make scope is this ??
Anyone know what brand scope this is? It was factory mounted on a 7x64 Brno ZG-47 in 1956. Meopta? There are no markings on it.

Claret_DabblerLooks like some really old ( maybe pre WWII ? ) zeiss I have seen, or maybe early East German Zeiss?

tin canthat top adjustment is very similar, if not the same, as on scopes used on '98 sniper rifles.
same scope, I think.
on eBay:
Hensoldt Wetzlar Dialytan 4x

The father of a friend of mine brought back a scope like these from Germany after the war, it did not have the knurled ring at the rear of the tube as these do.
-just noticed the adjustment knob on the turret faces opposite direction- sorry for the goose chase.
