Anyone know of Identification or gradeing of old weaver scopes or is there a reference anywhere?

Example: I know what a K4 and a K3 60-B is, what about the "B", "E", or "J" designation or #329, #330 etc etc? K3-E?

The J models were 3/4" tube scope with long eye relief made in the 1950s and early 1960s. They were basically centerfire scopes about the size of .22 rimfire scopes.

Whats a K3E that does not have EL Paso Texas stamped on it?

Looks just like a K2.5(or3) 60-B

What happened to weaver after the EL Paso weavers?

Read a few months ago that all of the parts inventory that Frank had was sold to the following guy:

Iron Sight Inc Redfield/Weaver (El Paso Scopes)
4814 South Elwood Ave
Tulsa, OK 74107
918-445-2001 or 918-521-7736

Frank will be missed, but like most good things, they come to an end, sadly..
