MopaneMikeNeed Sources for Used Euro Scopes
Hey all, Thanks for looking..
I'm in need of online sources for used Germ/Aus scopes..
I have a 1923 mfg. 9.3X62 Mauser with claw bases that I'm needing to scope. All the new German/Austrian scopes look, well too new to go on this ole girl.. I want the performance of a newer scope with keeping the looks of the older..
Prefer a lower power variable (2-7)??

Thanks all..

MopaneMikeThanks Butchloc,
I gave him a call and left message, unfortunately I don’t think he will be very responsive.. Over the years I’ve tried doing business several times.. The last two times I never even heard back from him. You might have a chance if you know exactly what your looking for (I don’t) and he happens to pick up the phone.. He has no inventory listing that I’m aware of, no internet nothing.. I definitely have the impression he’s winding down the business and concentrating on his place in Montana.. I hope I’m wrong..

SIKA98KTry EBay.There is one seller from Germany usually has a dozen or so every couple of weeks.
Alternatively I have 2 scopes surplus to requirement,a MSW of Wetzlar[S&B] 2X6X36 German post,26mm tube,windage and elevation,not centred.and a Geller 6x42 No4 reticle,elevation only,rail on bell and tube.
Both have beautifully clear optics.I used both on my Mausers and they did the business.
The old Kahles Helia 3x9x42 is a fine scope also.
PM me if you are interested.
